Busta Rhymes' Song For Peace



Busta Rhymes' Song For Peace
Busta Rhymes shared an interesting story regarding his massive 1997 hit "Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See," and the night he realized how big a smash the song was. At a nightclub, the Roc-A-Fella and Terror Squad camps allegedly got into an altercation, and Busta's single allegedly played a role in diffusing the incident.
"We were at the Roxy, and Kid Capri was DJing. I came in there with one of my mans, and Kid Capri played the sh*t for the third time, for the fourth time, for the fifth time, for the sixth time, for the seventh time, for the eighth time. By the eleventh time straight, no other song in between," Busta told Elliott Wilson in an interview for Respect Magazine. "I damn-near started crying in the club, because I couldn’t believe that I’d done something that was so compelling that warranted that kind of love from the DJ. And the club was demanding that he keep playing it. Roc-a-fella and Terror Squad crossed paths in that spot that night, and you just started seeing bottles wildin.'"
"Capri stopped the music: 'Yo, y’all n*ggas chill the f**k out, man. Don’t f**k up the party,'" Busta recalled. "N*ggas still wildin’. He was like, 'I know what’s gonna stop y’all from beefing'—[hums the intro of 'Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See'] for the twelfth time. That song stopped the beef."
