“I’m out here 51/50 head first! Man, I’m bout whatever y’all about!”

Can anyone explain 51/50?

As for the rest, it sounds like he’s trying to act tough and stand up to others who are threatening him.

It’s a bad look for a politician, at least to me and my demographic. Perhaps his constituents will appreciate it, though.

When this album came out, Edward Van Halen explained that ‘5150’ was LAPD’s callsign for “criminally insane”.

A 5150 comes from California. It is what is used to get someone on an emergency admission to a psych unit against their will. This can come from the police or docs. It lasts 72 hours then if two docs get together then it can be extended to 14 days I believe and then becomes a 5250. It's been a while since I worked in Cali but I believe this is right.
