Busta Rhymes - Intro - The Abstract And The Dragon Lyrics
We here, the abstract and the dragon
I don't even know where to start
You know me and tip, we've been friends
Brothers for like 26 years
Phife, Ali Shaheed, Jarobi, leaders of the new school
Theirs something about whenever me and Kamaal
AKA the abstract, AKA Q-Tip, when we come together
It's that unconquerable
It's that unstoppable
It's that undefeatable
It's that unkfuckwitable
Representing that real hip-hop
That real boom bap
And thank you
Shouldn't be a more apporopriate title to name that
For the first time it's official
The Abstract and The Dragon
You know this is a gift from us to ya'll
Something to hold ya'll over for the holiday season
Bringing that real feel good boom bamp shit back to life
We gone get back to that
I don't even know man
This is like a dream come true man
We in here with the gods man
I gotta stand up for this man
You know this is that life changing music here
Q-Tip man, like me being from Queens, this is an honor man
And then Busta my brother right here man
And what what takes so long for you two, cus i feel like
You two would have an album done together
You know like, we done seen the stage shows and everything
And the love is abundantly clear

Busta Rhymes Intro - The Abstract And The Dragon Comments
The cover artwork couldn't be more perfect. It's a perfect balance of busta and old school tribe. If the text was blurred, I'd still know what this was. Oh, and the music is booming in my jeep.
So I have a brief story to tell. I once heard Busta tell Qtip that he had just heard god lives through in the car and it brought a tear to his eye. I'll be damned if I didn't tear up hearing that same song with Busta actually in it. REAL HIP HOP NEVER DIES ✌🏾 Phife Dog
We are still listening! 2019 to infinity
Hasty decisions we made still prevail.
This album is so sick . Listened so many times . Never gets old. Dilla Dilla
Shit still 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥late in 2019!
🔥🔥🔥
Wild Hot... Bus-a-Bus went in and took over at 22:38
Classic Busta Rhymes from 58:21
Yea for real you would think tip and bus woulda had a joint album after all these years
☝🏿🤴🏿✊🏿
Instant classic
Real hip hop 4 Eva Big Up from Poland!! One Love!!
BOOM BAP!
13:50 whta's the difference between the original one and the remix? I listened to the remix here and the one I think is the original (from a music video), and can't spot any major differences. The instrumental is the same, the lyrics seem to be the same...
No kidds in the area ❤👌😇
What a legendary album
I'm happy good music like this isn't mainstream. It has soul to it....
Does anyone heard a difference in the snare... Alternating tones. One of the hits almost sounds like a rimshot.
the last song made my jaw drop no drop that this remix gave me a heart attack at a young age
Still best hip hop in 2019
You can't hold a torch .... is incredible who produced that shit sounds like XtraP shit 👍🏼
Lovely did J.Period do this as well. This is 🔥
FIGARO, FIGARO, FIGAROOOOO!!!
Still listening back a back in 2019

dope mixtape
i remember first seeing Busta Rhymes on mf'in "All That" in the 90s performing like a boss. Then I learned of ATCQ and Wu-Tang. And my path was chosen.
Redman's verse and cadence is in top form on that steppin' it up track. Glad I found this album. TY for the upload
Thanks to youtube recommendation algorithms
Reimemeister und Ohrestäbli...hehe.
my god this shit is doooooooooooooope yah
56:12 is a blessing
QTip the illest Emcee that also produces!
FIGARO, FIGARO, FIGARO
BUST YO' SHIT, SCAR YO WINDPIPES AND QUICKLY BREAK YO' ELBOWS
PUT MY FOOT IN YOUR ASS SLOW
FEEL THE FORCE LIKE A RACE HORSE OR LIKE A HERD OF BUFFALO
STILL AND ALWAYS BE HAPPY I STILL LOVE THIS IN '18'....

What a fantastic mixture.
Simply greatness all over
Too many ads

This was garbage because it was regression! The unnecessary nastiness & vulgarity on this album was unbecoming & beneath them! I hope they never do any bs like this again! I sound like a No Limit record 97. Yuck!
Oh yaaaaaa why have i not looked this up earlier. Some jamzz RIP PHIFE
Stay away your fired.
Stay the fuck away from me.
Beast more
Kanye gets hyped up on Thank You.
Smh... I'm so out the loop on music, on today, May 25th, 2018, I just NOW realized there was an actual whole collab album... well mixtape. I heard Thank You and Torch, but my slow ass being half ass wondering all this time if they ever did a whole joint. Love the cover art.
Yo June 2019 and I just found this. It's a crime this a hidden gem and not mainstream.
i know its a mixtape, but: VINYL PLEASE
i was invited to tour with Hopsin, but because i dont have a car to go to Hamburg, i couldn't show up...
"the★@ß$T®∆¢t*₱∅€T|©*
QUEENZ★†" LARGE★PRO*
Go @ Dey head BUSSABUS!....
Capture the abstract!!! Eh
I would love to know who EXACTLY who Busta was talking about when he told the engineer to turn the beat off.
Just stumbled across this in 2018....what yr was this actually made?
42:16 has got to be the greatest exclusive teaser I've ever heard. It's so nostalgic
I'm Home!!!!!

BUSSA BUS!!!!!
Excuse my language, but this shit is fuckin' dope! Now THAT's what the hell I call real hip hop! ✊🏾🤘🏾✊🏾🤘🏾
Real hip hop...

83 ppl don’t know true hip hop
I've slept on the my head what
See I like to get down Jack! this gives me the feels!
More than you know.
Keeping noggin's bobbing since 1989. Big up Fife Diggy . J.Dilla , Jerobi , Ali Shaheed Mohammed, Native Tongues , Bussa Buss, Tip , and everyone connected with the mighty ATCQ.
Sick beats but can't listen to it coz I like to feel the bass but I can't turn it up coz there's like 30 fucking adverts so each time one comes on I gotta stop whateva I'm doing to turn the advert down. Then wait till I can skip so fuck that
Abstract Dragon DAmmnnnn
Better than most of this crap called hip hop.
Great mixtape. If Li’l Wayne would have been left off, it would have been the best mixtape. Still good.
They just schooled every mumble rapper and bodied them! BARS!! Busta, Q-Tip, and Phife (RIP), RedMan back slapped the shit out them! With Authority! (Mic Dropped smokin'....)
Also ich finds guet
This destroys ANYTHING out there today, and so does "Thank You for Your Service".
My god, what the fuck has happened to Hip Hop since the mid 2000's? These dudes are nearly twice as old as today's so called rappers, and yet they still get it done.
new new york florida rap jcoles camp in alt tde in the west grow up old head
why you say Busta doesn't rap anymore. fyi, the day you wrote that there was a fresh single out featuring Missy Elliot and Kelly Rowland
and 'Don't forget that the only hip hop you remember is the commercially successful one, in general' goes for the most, but not every person in general. hell the rappers i know personally may never get successful >_<
jackwell 90 that comment just mind fucked me m8
JR Weeks why
