IF YOU DON'T KNOW NOW YOU KNOW PT. 2 (feat. Big Tigger) - Sped Up

Welcome to Rap City, it's your boy Big Tigger and I'm

Happy to introduce my guest, Mr. Busta Rhymes

It's Busta Bus, you know the god you trust, that masterful thinker?

Good to see you again, since you and Ride were at the Grammys killin'

What's happenin'? Everything good, how the hell have you been?

It's been a strong five years since we last checked in

Ayo, been strategically movin' the chess pieces on the chess board

Yeah, you see me, the way that I been creepin' on 'em, yes Lord (nice)

You see it

Let's take a ride on the personal side

Where the good, bad, and ugly seem to always collide

And you always seem to survive any cards you've been dealt

So tell me where you're currently at with your physical health (okay)

And while I always kill, it's always someone that's tryna curse me

I gotta give thanks, I'm blessed, and, yes, I'm completely healthy

And I love when niggas talk and despise me, so I let 'em

See, the answer to show niggas better than you can tell 'em

You've had to deal with a lot of real-life drama

What do you say to those people that's just callin' it karma?

I ain't gotta say shit to 'em, it's the balance of life

You gotta through love and hell if you want it to turn out right

And despite the turbulence, if it's my karma to keep winnin'

I hope the karma continues 'til angel voices is singin' to me

See, I embrace with open arms what karma's bringin' to me

Hope y'all embrace these bombs in this movie

Thirty years plus since Bus grabbed the microphone

And now I understand you're back with Sylvia Rhone?

You're motherfuckin' right

See, me and the boss lady move tight

In my career, she's been the brightest light

Back in the day, it was tapes, wax, and CDs

Now it's TikTok, MP3s, and digital streams

A lot's changed since you first came in the frame

Wanna know your opinion on the state of the game

The state of the game is cool and I respect the evolution

But when it comes to business, it gotta be a better solution

Seems like the more things change, the more they stay the same

Explain what's goin' on with this big-ass chain

Ayo, see I don't buy jewels to stunt no more, call me mineral investor

I buy shit I can pass down like all of my ancestors

Big diamonds, big gold for the whole world to see

With an architectural design by TraxNYC, believe it

I'd ask to rock it, but I might fall

And by the way, how much of a ball was Live at Carnegie Hall?

Man, the shit was necessary and needed and so essential

The shit was legendary, historical, monumental

Black excellence suited, lookin' so godly, exceptional

Me, Mr. Lewis, and Scratchator lookin' professional

Price different than what it was before, please move the decimal

See Robert F. Smith and Earn Your Leisure was incredible

This year at the Grammy was one for the ages

Tell me why you always amaze us every time you on stages

Now, I appreciate the acknowledgement, let 'em read the articles

The thing me and my crew posses is called the god particle

Our passion on that stage that make other niggas look horrible

The conquerors on stage is like you doin' the impossible

My nigga Spliff is Neo in the Matrix, I'm the Oracle

And when we step up on that stage, it becomes a problem that's unsolvable

It's a testament to the way you do things

And I gotta ask, how dope was is to be on tour with Wu-Tang?

Correction, I was on tour with Wu-Tang and Nas

The audience had a lot of gangsters and beautiful broads

Every night was a family reunion and gathering of gods

Fucked it up every show, every evening, I needed a massage, shit

Back to the stage with a microphone, peep how the gods spit

I'm celebrating, bring me a queen with some large tits

You, Scratchator, and Spliff put it down every night, and

If Spliff can't go, Big Tigger be the hypeman

No? Then tell me who's playin'

This new album produced by Swizz Beats, Pharrell, and Timbaland

Correction again, this album is executive produced by the Dragon, Pharrell and Timbaland and Swizz

Listen to this

I wrapped this present up proper, now I'm liftin' a gift

The greatest minds came together so the culture will shift

We gave you something more potent for you niggas to sniff

'Til we delivered, you probably thought this shit was a myth

And disappears in smoke like it was steamin' or piff

Dreamin' that we was close friends like it was me and Spliff

Man, I can't wait 'til that new shit drop

'Specially the same year we celebratin' fifty years of hip-hop

Plus you're an all-time great, we can agree

But tell me what you want your legacy to be

Well, everything about my whole genetic make-up been stamped

My legacy the greatest, intercontinental champ

I ain't talkin' 'bout you, Tigg, but if somebody wanna doubt it

Go tell 'em do they research, I don't need to talk about it

Okay, let's talk about the scene

When you got teary-eyed on BET gettin' your Lifetime Achievement

I'm sayin' true indeed, when I got the call, I couldn't believe it

All the sacrifices I had to go through just to receive it

Missin' precious moments with my kids like the planets collidin'

The lesser of the two evils so I could keep providin'

Such a celebratory moment, everything was pleasant

My kids was with me in the room, so my legacy was present

Nice, it's almost time for us to break here

Before we go, is there anything else you wanna make clear?

Yeah, I wanna make it clear I hope y'all people honor it

Kiss this ring while you respect my conglomerate

God bless, I wish you the best, keep doin' it bigger

And thanks for sittin' down to kick it with your boy Big Tigger

Bus, you had an amazing career (facts)

But if this track snaps, then we gotta run it back next year

And I'm sorry interview time is up and it gotta end

Next time we pull up on each other, we can do this shit again

And if you don't know, now you know

And if you don't know, now you know, nigga

A-ra-ta, a-ra-ta-ta-ta, a-ra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
