That song is ridiculous trash either way. It's some silly Soulja Boy type ish.

I would never buy an album on the strength of that song. Busta should be ashamed to be 20 years into his career dropping silly catch phrase songs.

When he went to Aftermath, he said it was because it would allow him to grow as an artist. Seems to me like he's really regressing these days.

shani — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 18:37:14 GMT

The reason that the song was banned in England was not mainly that is was found offensive to Arabs. It's because the song had part of a Muslim prayer in it which is considered sacred and not to be associated with music or lyrics such as “…dropping bombs like the Taliban“, “sitting in casinos while I’m gambling with Arafat…“, “…while I make you bow down and make Salaat like a Muslim“, “all the girls love me, yeah pop some bubbly“.

It's not that big a deal in the U.S. But in the U.K. the Muslims are much more militant and will call in serious death threats to radio stations that they think are offending Islam.

busta should apologize for the song. and i think this should start a new precedent. any time a rapper puts out a garbage ass song, he should have to publicly apologize for it, especially for someone like busta who has the ability to make great music.

oh, and also apologize for whatever ways it was offensive to arabs too.

Apologize for spewing hatred against gays & lesbians?

Can we truly get our "Rodney King" on? Can we all just get along?

Can hip-hop lead the world in showing that it embraces and encompasses ALL MARGINALIZED voices?

All forms of hatred, bigotry and religious intolerance needs to stop!

what busta did was a mistake and unintentional. so quit trying to compare what happend between both and go to a post bout trick trick and poor your heart out.

I see NO REASON why Busta Bus has to apologize. F that. This is Hip Hop. Keep your religious ish out of here. For that wack dude claiming ish is plan bull. Whats he mad about? For some reason I got a funny feeling dude prolly disrespected someone in the past week never mind on track. I'm offended he said "Boo" never mind anything else. Will I get him to talk to me and try to quell the situation? Hope he thinks about that before he goes crying again. You can love your religion and what not, but don't get your panties in a mix because someone put a religious quote in a SONG! A friggen SONG. That's all it is, idiot (or bareback or what ever his gay ass name is.)

I listen to PARIS and I'm Catholic and I don't take what HE says as bond. He on some Islam ish too! But I take him with a grain of salt because I don't get offended easily and he speaks alot of truths. I balance my thoughts and go from there.

If dude really wanted to talk to Busta, he should have said he was a radio station and got his grove on with a Busta interview.

In the end rapper apologizes like the old bitch ass nigga he is after saying he didn't mean to disrespect Arab culture, while the stupid arab niggas act like they won when I guarantee this song will still play on radio tonight, tomorrow and the next day and if it wasn't such a garbage song period it would be played more, I wish 50 Cent had made this because one it would have been good and two he wouldn't of apologized cause some lame corner store owning niggas caught feelings

Eh, I don't know much about Islam, but I'd say there was no reason for someone to be THAT pissed about a stupid song. Anyone with brains should be able to figure that the whole "getting Arab money" concept was just a stupid little simile of sorts. I would say if any kind of actual message was displayed by the song, Busta was bigging up Arab culture. He was saying he was down with it! Too many mutha fuckin religious freaks in this world. Christians, Jews, Muslims, etc. People fighting and making threats over some shit that's all faith and no one can even fucking PROVE. I'm somewhat religious and spiritual, but honestly, religion has caused more major wars and tragedies than anything in history. Religious and political extremists got to go! I thought religion was supposed to help you live a better life, learn to love, respect and promote peace, but half the time assholes take it and twist it to make some foul shit out of it. Devout Christians are fucking homophobes. Radical Muslims basically want war with whoever aint down with Islam, cause you're an infidel and shit. Fuck, man. I like Buddhists! When's the last time you heard a mutha fucka get killed in the name of Buddha?

Suburban_Reject — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 01:17:36 GMT

Well, the part that the Muslim community dint like was the use of a Qu'ran verse in a song about money, and they're crazy bout there qu'ran cuz it's the literal book of God (accordin to muslim people, anyways). it's messed up that Busta (a 5-Percenter) himself, can mess up that like that (it's against his own religion to do that). And it wasn't just him; T-Pain, Akon, and Swizzy are also all Muslim or born to Muslims.

No, white people do not care that Busta "disrespected" Arabs, but you can bet that they like the minority communities divided as hell so they can continue to rape the world like they've been doin.

This ain't a big deal; it was a petty mistake by Busta that got blown up by everybody (though seriously, Narcicyst, he ain't actually respectin or talkin bout Arab culture in a positive way at all. this isn't pre-9/11 with the 5-Percent references by him and Wu-Tang. This is just him tryna put out a club banga.)

some religions are generally or a little bit cool with poking fun. (south park, robot chicken, alot of stuff) jesus is my homeboy ect..

However there is an understanding and respect that we do not poke fun at our religion. and its cool to have that otherwise how could you ever really respect your religion? in islam we dont even show a pic or even attempt to draw one of our prophet..

Still i love Hip Hop and for an issue to brought upon and exposes many ppl of how it really is.

Muhammad for your own info was the first to make it clear 1400 years ago that in ISLAM there is no difference between white and blacks and he actually freed the slaves.

he even went as far as honoring his close black friend Bilal with the honor of calling for prayer for the first time. and thats some honorable stuff.

so Muhammad is a racist??

I see what your saying, but this was not about race and color. It was about the verse in the song. And if Busta was apologizing to TRUE Hip Hop Fans, then he was saying sorry to me... but i don't need an apology for a good song or a wack song (see Solider Boy Tell'em). I been Hip Hop since '82... It is what it is. I expect ruff edges from Rap Music. That's why I listen.

I'm white and listen to PARIS and PE, Wise Intelligent, KAM, X-CLAN and others. But I balance out what is said and what it means to me and disregard most because those are their thoughts and opinions on wax, I'm just a humble listener to what is being played. I expect harsh ish from Rap Music.

Now check out this NARC dude ish... beats are phat, yes.. but look at homeboy myspace ish and it states he was born in Canada... f'in idiot.

Seems like people don't understand that using passages from the Koran is deemed disrespectful to that culture. Its not about Bustal being a punk for apologize. The purpose of the song was to show them love, he just wasn't aware.

What the fuck is this shit on about!!!!!??????

This ain't racist at all, i've played it in front of one of my friends who is an arab and he didnt find it offensive at all. Actually the lyrics in another language are not in arab anyway but in punjabi or something like that

WHAT ABOUT THE REMIX BUSTA!!!???

I'm and a Muslim, and I'm from Africa (Somalia)...I was born in the United Arab Emirates..I'll tell you right now, Arabs are one of the most racist cultures in the world. They are more racist than white people. Thats just a fact Id like to share with you guys..and im not talking bout Religious Arabs.

But than not ALL ARABS are racist..so the song still isn't right..honestly I dont even care about the A-RAB thing..its the QURAN in the Song thats bothering me...Stop the blasphemy busta...RE-RECORD THE SONG!

Yo again. ARAB DUDE MAKES RAP ABOUT BUSTA RHYMES. I DON'T HERE HIM SAYING NOTHING ABOUT ARABS WHO MISUSE THE MUSLIM FAITH FOR THEIR OWN GAIN. AGAIN I DON'T SEE ANYTHING DEROGATORY IN THE SONG. THE SONG IS NOT PAINTING ARABS AS BACKWARDS OR ANYTHING STEREO TYPICAL JUST THAT THEIR HARDWORKING, MAKE MONEY, AND ENJOY IT. THE KORAN VERSE IS BAD BUT OTHER THAN THAT GIMMIE A BREAK. AND THIS DUDE NEED TO BE HONEST HE DIDN'T POINT OUT ONE DEROGATORY STATEMENT. PLEASE SOMEBODY STEREOTYPE THE BLACK RACE WITH US BEING HARD WORKING AND GETTING THAT MONEY. ARAB MONEY IS GOOD NIGGA RICH IS BAD. NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SONG. GETTING RABBI MONEY IS NOT BAD. JEWS MAKE MONEY. WHEN DID MAKING MONEY BECOME DEROGATORY. GOD PLEASE THIS AIN'T SPEEDY GONZALEZ OR SONG OF THE SOUTH TAR BABY CRAP. GETTING MONEY IS GOOD. DUBAI WILL QUICKLY POINT THAT OUT TO YOU. TRY A VISIT. THEY WILL TELL YOU YOU AIN'T GETTING ARAB MONEY.

Arab Muslims have oppressed,pillaged and massacred alot of black Africans in Southern Sudan. Lets talk about that b4 we go apologizing for one song

Let me tell u something, Arabs don't hate black people/African-Americans, they actually dislike (not hate) white people for being racist about u guys!
I would know, i'm an arab myself. As for myself, i rlly love colored people (and just so you would know, we've got colored people of our own, too!)! the way u guys talk, ur music, even ur style!
So don't go around thinking that Arabs hate u..
maybe u might've ran into a couple of arabs who were being rude..but that doesn't mean they're all like that!

@ Jasmine95....Whoa there...people stopped publicly calling us "colored people" since the 60's...but anyway like I said before, song is fire, but Busta overstepped his boundaries with the Qu'ran reference....I feel kind of dumb because I sing the hook extra hype, and don't even know what the heck it means, lol.

Busta Rhymes is a big man for apologizing. I lived in Muscat, Oman so I understand where The Narcicyst is coming from. I have to admit, I cringed a bit when I saw the video of this song, and I'm a Nigerian American. But with that said, Busta handled the situation well.

Suburban_Reject — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 01:21:44 GMT

@WdDevil: That shit ain't punjabi. the original hook is just gibberish, but some of the verses in the remix are Arabic, and include the Qu'ran verse he's apologizing about (the only thing he really needs to, and that more for himself for violatin his own religion).

@ baynig4sho
I know what you mean, my dad would mind, but not because you're black! And didn't ever occur to you that they're ust looking at you cuz you're tourists or something? Don't you look at foreigners in your country? And as i said before, we have black people of our own, so if any arab judges you for your color, spit in his face if you want! They're not better than you..
All i'm doing here is trying to help :)
