专辑介绍

"Woo Hah!! Got You All In Check" is Busta Rhymes' first solo single and was released in 1996 from his solo debut album The Coming. It peaked at #8 in the U.S. on April 20, 1996 and #2 in the UK. In the U.S., the song was released as a double A-side single with "Everything Remains Raw".

The song's instrumental contains a sample from "Space" by Galt MacDermot. The punch line for the song is a reference to Big Bank Hank's punch line in the 1981 Sugarhill Gang release "8th Wonder": "See it's up my back, it's around my neck / Woo-hah! Got them all in check." Rapper Rampage features for a short pre-verse introduction.

Busta Rhymes indicates that, once he was offered to do his first solo album, he spent close to seven months with writer's block. At the time, he was seriously concerned because of the financial commitments that were in place to have the album issued, and with having nothing to deliver. He claims to have been playing a game of basketball when, suddenly, he juxtaposed the line from "8th Wonder" in his mind with a shouted "Woo Hah!" he heard around him. All of a sudden, he says, he felt like a gate was opening in his mind. By the end of the day he had written three songs for the album (including "Woo Hah!"), and had the entire album written over a weekend.

In 1996, It was nominated Best Rap Solo Performance at the Grammy Awards, but lost to Coolio for Gangsta's Paradise.

In 2008, It was ranked number 56 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop.
