"Breakfast (Syrup)" is a song by American rapper Kreayshawn, released on May 22, 2012, as the second single from her debut studio album, Somethin' 'Bout Kreay (2012). The song features guest vocals from Southern rapper 2 Chainz, with whom Kreayshawn previously collaborated on his song "Murder" for his mixtape T.R.U. REALigion (2011).
Kreayshawn produced and directed the song's music video herself.[3] "My favorite part about the video shoot was the breakfast party in the kitchen," she said. "It was so colorful and just how I envisioned it when I wrote the treatment."[4] Before the video's premiere, she described the concept behind the video as, "[...breakfast is] the most important meal of the day, so everybody needs their breakfast. It will be a great music video because I directed it and everything I direct is great."[5] The video premiered on her official VEVO channel on May 21, 2012, one day before being officially released on iTunes.[3] Rap artist formerly known as Tity Boi, 2 Chainz, makes an appearance in the video.[6] The video features Kreayshawn and others pouring maple syrup over breakfast food items, such as pancakes and cereal.[7] In the chorus, Kreayshawn raps, "'I'm hungry/ Hungry for this money/ Call me Kreay Hefner/ Playboy bunny,"[7] alluding to Hugh Hefner and his Playboy adult magazine empire.
