Gulfstream Aerospace makes a family of business jets that include the G150, G280, G350, G450, G500, G550, G600, and G650. These are often colloquially shortened to G1-G6, as Jay does here. He compares the heights of their power and wealth to the heights private jets can reach, which is typically 41,000-45,000 feet. 92% of the speed of sound. It previously hit the charts in 2010 when Far East Movement became the first Asian-American artists to hit #1 on the U.S. Billboard charts with “Like A G6.”
