“Hurricane Jane” is a song that took a couple of years to become what it is now. I often try to develop little stories for each song. I had this idea of these upper-class kids that would go to the ghetto and treat it as their playground. You know, fuck shit up without consequence. You know, not worrying about consequences but relying on their money to get them out of whatever. I’m not sure where I got this idea from. Maybe it was just from going out and seeing kids like this in areas where they don’t belong. They feel like they own everything. It went from that, this club culture type thing and I personalized it more by boiling down to a guy and a girl and taking all the social shit out of it. It took forever because it evolved from one thing into a pop song about a guy and a girl.
so from that, im thinking jane is maybe a popular girl or something and she goes around treating guys the way she wants, not really caring if they get hurt. but then there's this guy (reggie, i guess) that thinks even though she goes around and does this stuff, he should still give her a chance cause "he thinks it's gonna be worth it".
-not every song with the name "jane" in it is about drugs guys.
i read in an interview what this song is about:
