Busta Rhymes featuring Nas, Lil' Wayne, Big Daddy Kane, The Game, Spliff Star and Reek Da Villain


After all the hoopla surrounding "Touch It"'s "everybody-and-their-mama" all-star remix, Busta amps up another one of his singles to posse status; but taking it a step further this time, he mixes his guest list with some legendary icons (Big Daddy Kane, Nas), giants of today (Lil' Wayne, Game), an up-and-comer (Reek Da Villain) and...well, Spliff Star for the blazing "Don't Touch Me" sequel.

Some thoughts after hearing it:

-Spliff Starr manages to impress every time he gets around to dropping a verse, so why has he not released one solo album after all these years? Would anyone even buy it?

-Reek Da Villain is nice here (and second to Busta as the one that adheres to the raucous track the best). But who is he again?

-How many watches does Game need?

-But we'll give him props for not giving us a laundry list of name-dropping...save for a subtle Wu reference.

-The love/ hate relationship with Weezy continues. His cameo here ranks on the love side, but it wasn't made official until the "Wayne is a flame that can live in the water" line.

-Isn't it weird hearing Nas saying things like "See you in the club/ Wrist never on froze"?

-Big Daddy Kane might be 75 but, in the words of T-Pain, he's still "got it".

-We get that Flipmode is, like, a "STATE OF MIND" and everything, but does the actual group still exist?
