At that point, I didn't even feel like answerin him
Stupid-ass motherfuckin producer got me real upset
And I ain't even got to work with him yet
I showed up at 10:30, so I was already late
He showed up after me and forgot to bring his own DAT tapes
He shook my hand with both of his hands
And told me he could play it over again with both of his friends
Yo, as long as I get tracks 2 and 6

Canibus, real name Germaine Williams, is an American rapper of Jamaican descent. Active since 1994, Canibus has been recognized for his complex and fast rhymes, often characterized by a strong philosophical component. His debut album, *Can-I-Bus*, was released in 1998 under LL Cool J's label, Def Jam Recordings. The album achieved moderate commercial success, but it was the single "Second Round K.O.", a direct response to Nas, that captured the public's attention. Canibus continued to release albums in subsequent years, collaborating with artists such as The Alchemist and DJ Premier. Among his most representative tracks are "40 Acres and a Mule", "C.R.E.A.M.", and "The 9th Wonder".
