What the original account establishes
These notes distinguish the recorded result from quantities or settings the contributor did not specify. Follow each source link to the original passage.
- Beneath the rap the account records a few steps: the jelly was melted in a kitchen at 30 degrees, gelatine was added to thicken the mixture, a measuring cup was used for the pouring, the jelly went into the fridge next to the Angel Delight to set overnight, and the icing sugar for decoration was sieved so it would not come out lumpy. The cost is given as only 2 pounds, and the makers claim their jelly is bigger by seven two eight times, a figure the account does not explain. Source 1 · Source 2 · Source 3

[Verse] When I pull out up front, you see the ingredients are bitchin When I melt the jelly, it’s 30 degrees in the kitchen Pimpers heard I pimp with style, I do any flavour that you prefer You gotta add the geletine, to thicken the mixture But now you need to put the stirrer down, cos pourings up I see Xzibiscuit telling me to use a measuring cup If you watch how I pour, you’ll mistake me for a playa or pimp…

"In Da Kitchen"
[2-Pacs of Biscuits]
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go Jelly
It’s your birthday
We gon’ pimp yo like it’s yo birthday
We gon’ make yo bigger like it’s yo birthday
‘Cause you know we don’t give a f**k
It’s not your birthday!
[Chorus (2x)]
You can find me in the kitchen, where its bitchin
Mama, I got that jelly, if you into pimpin’
I’m into having lots of jelly, I ain’t into making small things
So come give me a hug if you into getting pimpin
[Verse]
When I pull out up front, you see the ingredients are bitchin
When I melt the jelly, it’s 30 degrees in the kitchen
Pimpers heard I pimp with style, I do any flavour that you prefer
You gotta add the geletine, to thicken the mixture
But now you need to put the stirrer down, cos pourings up
I see Xzibiscuit telling me to use a measuring cup
If you watch how I pour, you’ll mistake me for a playa or pimp
Spilt a few drops but this mummy aint gonna limp
In the cookhouse, in L.A. they saying "the jelly, you should cool it"
They like me, I want them to love me like they love ‘Mootated Milk Biscuit
So I put the jelly in the fridge, next to the angel delight
And the plan is to freeze it over night
I’m feelin’ focused man, my jelly on my mind
I got to wait for a few hours but I’m still on the grind
Now shawty said she feeling my style, she feeling my flow
Her mummy wanna get jelly and they ready to go
[Chorus (2x)]
[Bridge]
My flow, my show,
My mom bought me all the ingredients
My jelly, my gelatine, my kitchen range
Look mom I gave you the money now I want the change.
[Verse]
And you should love it, way more then you hate it
Pimper you mad? I thought that you’d be happy I made it
Take that mommy out the fridge after you left it over night
Sieve the icing sugar or it comes out lumpy right?
When my hands get to pimpin in the kitchen it’s on
I wink my eye at ya snack, if it’s tasty then it’s gone
If the roof on fire, you done it all wrong
If you talking bout money homie, its only 2 pounds
I’m a professional not a clown
If the pimpers hate then let ’em hate
But this jellys bigger by times seven two eight
At least it wont give you a big belly
Cos you know its only jelly
[Chorus (2x)]
