I like the tonal beat of this song, but the lyrics are philosophical, which I think illustrates the idea of unchallenged perception. Bonafide is authentic and organic, yet the message's intention is in disagreement with the virtues it preaches. By using transfer, to illustrate our societal respect for the elderly, and then testing the hypothesis with conflict, "the type that makes me feel old" reveals the antithesis of wisdom. Wise is believed to be ideal, but it lacks an integral component ... "naivety" to become empirical. The song basically says enlightenment is fallacy.

Enlightenment is Fallacy: A Post-Colonial Reading of Chromeo's "Bonafied Lovin"
Spincycle's observation that the central argument of "Bonafied Lovin" is a rejection of enlightenment principles is an astute summation of larger themes in the Chromeo canon. When Dave 1 croons, "'Cause you can't compete with a man like me/
And that's just how it works", he is mocking a traditional logical process -- the because/therefore logic (Macklovitch).

Ironic statements like these are typical of the middle period Chromeo works and reflect the maturing political views of Dave 1 and P-Thugg. Dave 1 and P-Thugg...

Dave 1 and P-Thugg had just begun their attempts to bring peace to the Israeli-Palestine conflict before the release of "Fancy Footwork". Through a series of concerts and dialogues between artists in the embattled Gaza Strip, Chromeo sought to reject previously held biases and schemas that were clouding the views of the body politik.
