The song “Can U Be” by Kanye West and Travis Scott is a song of commitment and understanding. It speaks to the struggles of trying to make a relationship work in spite of obstacles like financial difficulty, judgement from others, and the difficult decisions that have to be made. This is all framed in a chorus of “Can you be?” that invites the listener to commit themselves to making a relationship work if it's worth it. In the bridge, Travis Scott also expresses a key question: “before we go, I got one question” which encourages reflection and further communication about the relationships struggles. The song is ultimately a powerful testament to the power of commitment and understanding in relationships.
