Are you serious…busta need2 get those dreds back and get his head on straight. Arab money got our tail fuc*ked up in 9/11. It looks good in words but other than that its a disgrace. I thought obama won tell rappers its time for a change.
Im GHOST
November 27th, 2008 at 1:54 pm
Half the dudes on this track are fraudulent:Wayne(fake blood, kissing other men), Akon(Made up criminal past), Rick Ross(Stole another man’s nickname, Was NEVER a drug kingpin, C.O.)
November 27th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
Superman and his gay ass always finding wayne posts lol

November 27th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
@1

Track is sick in the club and on my system.. We gettin a rab money lol
P.diddy killin these remixs lately.. Swagga like puff and his verse on this is on point stil
November 27th, 2008 at 3:10 pm
hope u kno the hook is gibberish
November 27th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
LiL Wayne Hater…How you hate lil wayne but when you always jockin him? Wayne Stans are HILARIOUS!!!
November 27th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
what the fuck is he doing,he put quran in the music,disrespecting god in a song .
defenitely searching controversy = publicity.
what stupid guy.hes from nation of islam ,not islam
November 27th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
For you clueless fools, he is not speaking “gibberish”
Bismillahi Ar-Rahman Ar-Rahim – translated means “In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful”
Alhamdulillah – means – “All Praise is due to Allah”
..Hes clearly mocking Islam, he actually thinks this shit will fly, cause he invites anyone on the remix who has any Muslim affiliation. Like Swizz Beats (Kasseem Dean), Akon (Aliaune Damala), T-Pain (Faheem Najm), P.Diddy (Dad was Muslim, Lil Wayne (I have no fuckin idea why this devil is on the song)…but yo Busta Rhymes needs to kill himself. Disrespecting Islam, hes not a real Muslim. Only real Muslim rapper i know is LUPE FIASCO..
Busta is a 5 percenter..and I Dont even think hes that anymore..disrespectful piece shit needs to die. He just bought himself a first class ticket to hell.
Inshallah (God Willing)
November 27th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
The picture is clear he’s being contradictory to his beliefs. I have see what the 1st post is saying. Get it together Busta….you can’t be on the the fence. Choose between the the two:
1) Selling out your beliefs and disgracing your people for money.
2) Staying true to yourself and your beliefs.
November 27th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
fuck all the muslims gettin offended i was offended when the towers fell…and they fucked of the song A-rab money was better not this arab. and all this jibberish terrorist talk. i didn’t even know it translated….i just though it was jibberish
November 27th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
bin laden migh just bomb busta for this shit. i dnt think he pronouncin that shit right
November 27th, 2008 at 4:43 pm
Can’t we all just get along? LOL! Good for Ron Browz! That fake beef with T-Pain is over. They’re working together. In the name of Allah Busta brought people together. If that’s disrespectful then so be it. Allah=God and brotherhood=wealth. Peace be unto you and Happy Thanksgiving!
November 27th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
i dont have any respect for busta after this one. fucking fake ass muslim. and im really disapointed at akon,this shit is really offending for me as a muslim. i hope all these cocksuckers choke on a dick
November 27th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
@ Jesus Walks
You need to kill that noise foreal..I dare you to say that to a Muslim person’s face. You honestly believe Real Muslims support terrorists?…Its against our religion to kill innocent people. Terrorists kill ANYONE against them, INCLUDING their own Muslim brothers & Sisters..you need to stop watching Fox News and educate yourself..Ignorance seems bliss to you.
November 27th, 2008 at 5:03 pm
on some real shit this shit is HOT……………….
November 27th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
SENEGAL stand da f up
November 27th, 2008 at 6:59 pm
Wow did not like this AT ALL, but then again i never liked the original
and as for Veraci0us, why everytime i see a comment from you its totally directed at someone elses comment, and you putting them down for it, does it really make you feel better about your own life? was your childhood a rough one?
“damn calm down n@gga.. How is it blasphemy where on the track did anyone mention god in a disrespectful way??”
you need to get your facts straight before you try coming at people, no wonder you havent said anything about “Maktubs” comment, so you “n@gga” is the one who needs to calm the fuck down
November 27th, 2008 at 7:59 pm
@ mi mi, sigh [ll]
your accusations towards myself are flawed and so is your anti veraci0us propaganda.. But im truely flattered that you spent so much time and energy towards blogging about me…
On the track itself.. Do you actually know what blasphemy means? No artist has been disrespectful to God (in this case allah) or religion so with that being said my point remains unsurmountable… And nothing that maktub said contradicts that view point..
Im willing to say im wrong if proven to be but that is not the case..
“You can hate me now”
November 27th, 2008 at 8:34 pm
@veraci0us
Honestly bro, if you were a Muslim, you’d understand that you can’t even Allah (God), in the Washroom. Let alone a CLUB where their is alcohol and women shaking their ass to this.
If the Muslim community actually gets a hold of this song, Busta is gonna get some seeeerious backlash. But I doubt it will happen, because Music a sin in Islam, and so leaders in Islam dont listen to it, and won’t catch on.
Either way, its extremely blasephemous, because A) Music is Haraam (A SIN), and if Busta is a Muslim (Which he said he is), hes being Blasphemous, and B)This song will be played in Clubs, maybe even strip clubs, the thought of it makes me so angry, I swear to you, this man is shouting out Saudi Arabia like hes cool, FOR this song, he would be executed, Death sentence. Under Shariah Law (Islamic Law)..Muslims don’t play with religion.
November 27th, 2008 at 9:58 pm
@ maktub you made you put across your point very well, and i now respect your view point on y u precieve this to be blasphemy. He without sin shall cast the first stone… the very fact that your a muslim and listenin to music means that your in no position to hold the moral high ground… Just as busta rhymes reveals himself as not a devout muslim you in turn follow along that precise line… I agree there was no need for this track to have taken a religious tangem..
November 27th, 2008 at 10:01 pm
Veraci0us i see you got out your thesaurus, trying so hard to sound educated. My accusations huh? Im sorry but what in fact did I accuse you of? I simply asked why you’re so bitter in pretty much every post i read by you, and before you go saying I take out the time to read only your comments, im just an avid reader of this site who finds it funny that you’re constantly getting ripped on, you and white boy must be good friends
“But im truely flattered that you spent so much time and energy towards blogging about me…”
LOL i doubt its even a fraction of the time you spend arguing with people on this site
OUT
November 27th, 2008 at 10:16 pm
dont arabs find it offensive when they called “ay-rabs” like that
November 27th, 2008 at 10:40 pm
@ mi mi so much anger and pent up frustration inside you. Your valiant attempt to start an arguement with myself is obviously a cry for help
and more attention on realtalkny..
“Tryin so hard to sound educated” fact: i am educated im a graduate..
“what did i accuse you of” fact: you accused me of being “bitter which is an accusation not a fact because you dont know me..
Fact: u accused me of not being educated as i highlighted at the start of this new entry…
Anyone who reads your posts in this blog can see that your the one who has the sole intent of argueing…
November 27th, 2008 at 10:52 pm
oh and mi mi
i know for you there is no greater pleasure than reading my insightful commentary on all aspects of the hiphop genre. So just for you heres an interview i did with talib kweli, im sure that will get your juices flowing for the first time in a long time. Enjoy sweeti

Arab..Persian..FUK IT MIDDLE-EAsT MONeY!
November 27th, 2008 at 11:15 pm
i’m Muslim…and i think everyone is taking this song too far. Most Muslims think thier perfect, and this song is pretty cool since i know the meaning of it in arabic, and there are plenty of muslims out their who are music artists so its hypocriticle to say that its a sin. Its not disrespectful to islam, since there are many muslim rappers, lupe’s jams be in clubs too maybe the Sharia Law should kill u for being a BITCH ASS HYPOCRITE.
November 27th, 2008 at 11:23 pm
LMFAO @ ^

“mi mi so much anger and pent up frustration inside you. Your valiant attempt to start an arguement with myself is obviously a cry for help
and more attention on realtalkny..”
Whose making accusations now? Pathetic hypocrite
And as for you trying so hard to sound education, ITS A FACT, you usin phrases like “n@gga on point” and “he killin these remixes” then when someone comes at you, you take a 180 degree turn and start usin words like “propaganda, unsurmountable” LOL PLEASE you try way to hard and you know it
and as for you being bitter on every post, until you find me a post from you that isnt directed in a negative way at someone else commenting on the same topic, then it remains a fact you sad little man.
November 27th, 2008 at 11:33 pm
LMAO!
Well “Colin Aurelien”

Whose making accusations now? Pathetic hypocrite
You switch up from ebonics, “n@gga killin these remixes its on point” etc, to talkin like you a scholar or something sayin shit like “propaganda, unsurmountable” LOL its obviously you try way to hard, its a FACT
And as for you being bitter on every post, until I see a comment from you thats not directed negatively towards someone else commenting on the same topic, it remains a fact you sad little man.
LMFAO at your interview too “Colin Aurelien”
Like I said its almost ‘09, update your damn journalism
“Talib Kweli, about his latest album ‘The Beautiful Struggle’”
-Smh, so pathetic.
November 28th, 2008 at 1:07 am
@ Truth
You moron, you obviously don’t understand what I was said.
Let me make it clear to those having trouble understanding English, ahem (Veracious)..I am not perfect, nor did I say I was. Music is a sin, but I listen to it, and Busta n Lupe make Music. We are all wrong in that. BUT, the difference between us is that Lupe does NOT state anything about Allah (God), in a CLUB SONG, nor does he MOCK his own religion…thus he is not committing blasphemy. And I don’t listen to this song, and thus I am not supporting Blasphemy.
And to the illiterate Muslims who are trying to defend this song (Persian Princess)..I’d ask that you pick up a book, before you think that your opinion is of any value here.
@ VeracIOus
Just give it up bro, your obviously in way over your head.
November 28th, 2008 at 1:10 am
What I Said**
P.s. Before any smartass think they can use the fact that I LISTENED to the song as a counter argument, let me say that I listened to it once. Because you cant have an opinion of what you know nothing about. Some ppl just don’t understand that now a days
November 28th, 2008 at 2:21 am
Maktub explain to me:
1. why music is sinful
2. how Busta is mocking his own religion.
November 28th, 2008 at 3:12 am
@maktub
youve gone from sayin in ur comment @ #11 “hes clearly MOCKING ISLAM”
To now stating
“nor does he MOCK his own religion”
Do u actually know what the word “ISLAM” means?? Hahaha
Its okay maktub “i guess a n@gga just got confused” haha..
You just killed yourself on this subject, maktub the suicide blogger smh
November 28th, 2008 at 5:56 am
Ima a muslim and Im not offended at all ..people need 2 take it fuckin easy damn its just a song ..T-Pain and Akon are talkin arab but Ron Brownz I dont know what the hell he is sayin he is talkin gibberish ..people take a chill pill ..
November 28th, 2008 at 10:44 am
Im A Muslim
The Song Is Hot
The Song IS ARAB Money
Why Put Any Other Language But ARABIC On It
People Calm Down Please
November 28th, 2008 at 12:36 pm
@ veraci0us
You really are a moron.
Post 11: “..Hes clearly mocking Islam, he actually thinks this shit will fly”
Post 37: “Lupe does NOT state anything about Allah (God), in a CLUB SONG, nor does he MOCK his own religion”
…First quote, was speaking of busta, and second quote was towards Lupe..What is SOOO HARD TO UNDERSTAND. I don’t get were you dropped as a child?..
Or are you like the Fox News of this site, “suicide blogger” ??..really..your jokes get as much laughs as your IQ. Zero.
November 28th, 2008 at 12:41 pm
@ Afrikano
Music is a sin in Islam, because it says so in the Quran
And..the reason is
http://www.islamic-laws.org/musicgreatersin.htm
In Islam your not suppose to give your own opinion, or put your twist on what YOU think, so I wont’ tell you what i THink, I’ll let you read Quotes, from the Quran..or what Muslim Scholars have to say.
And busta is mocking it because we don’t do this. Muslims dont do this. It is considered disrespectful to say Allah’s name in vain. THIS GUY IS SINGING IT IN A SONG…hes saying it in the SAME thing that Allah deems a sin. so its blasphemous my friend..anyway im getting tired of this convo..I’m happy to have any intelligent convos with anyone, but that veracious dude is a straight moron
November 28th, 2008 at 12:57 pm
For the record, I was one of busta’s biggest supporters. He just really dissapointed me with this move…he should’ve stuck laaa laa laaa haa heeell laa leyyy..or whatever…atleast the words didnt have meaning n it was in clear funn..anything to make money i guess, needs controversy.
November 28th, 2008 at 2:04 pm
fact: veraci0us argues with females on blogs-gets ethered
November 28th, 2008 at 3:58 pm
this song is madd offensive i would hope they scrape this joint off of whoever album its on and radios should refuse to play it. we as the hiphop generation degrade so many things, and the radio and execs luv it. we degrade ourselves and our women and they get paid off of it and send they kids to college.
now as soon as some white college son of an exec makes a song screaming, ” WE GETTN NIGGER MONEY, WE GETTIN NIGGER MONEY” yall fuckin retards gonna be lighting up the blogs sayin how racist it is. this song is offensive whether ur muslim or arabic. thats like sayin ” WE GETTIN CHINK MONEY, CHING CHONG CHING CHINNGY CHONG CHONG CHONG, WE GETTIN CHINK GOOK MONEY”
OR ” WE GETTIN JEW MONEY, KNISH, BAGEL, YAMAKAS, HOUNAKAH,DRADEL, BATMISFAH, TORAHS AND BIG NOSES, WE GETTIN JEW MONEY”
we cant respect shit cuz we dont even respect ourselves, i hope sum real arabic ppl speak out against this. all these artist can be forgiven they just need to show sum respect i aint sayin they need to get stoned in the square or nothin just respect niggas shit, cuz for the record. NOBODY DONT WANT IT WIT THEM MUSLIMS. all praises due lol
November 28th, 2008 at 4:52 pm
Diddy has a new cologne out called I AM KING. I just bought a bottle at Macy’s and it smells great! Check it out!
November 28th, 2008 at 7:03 pm

November 28th, 2008 at 11:28 pm
Yo he just shouldve said god’s name BUT da song is HOTTT =D
Muslim Love!!!!!!!!!!!
November 28th, 2008 at 11:31 pm
****SHOULDNT HAVE****
November 29th, 2008 at 6:00 am
I hate these Muslim haters… I’m Christian and when gangster rapers were saying that they are praying every day to Jesus and kill people in the same sentence everyone was cool but if someone mention Allah in any kind of way (in this chase it’s connected with money) they get upset.
So what he is thanking Allah for the wealth he has and for me it’s normal because it 21st and if you don’t have money you cant feed you and your kids.
And for all the 9/11’s Arabs don’t live only in Middle East get educated and it’s not Arabs fault but Terrorist fault for 9/11…Terrorists are not Arabs, they are like KKK….Doing things in the name of God against the book (half of them don’t even understand the Bible and Kurr’an).
Kanye is Saying Jesus Walks…Busta is saying Arab Money…Get used to IT!
November 29th, 2008 at 9:00 am
@ Maktub
Music is Haram if you use Non-Halal instruments such as:
1. The Violin
2. The Oud (Guitar)
3. The Qanoun (Harp)
4. The Nay (Flute)
5. The Riq (Tambourine)
6. The Darbuka (Goblet Drum) etc.
All those instruments mentioned above are Arabic instruments, and they are widely used in Middle Eastern music.
Maktub you’re quick to condemn Busta Rhymes, a recent convert, and slow to condemn those Arab Musicans who grew up/live in an Islamic society (i.e. Saudi Arabia). They (Arabs) should know better!
November 29th, 2008 at 9:01 am
@ County of Kings
Don’t even try it!
“We Gettin African/Chinese Money” is not the same as “We Gettin Nigger/Chink Money”.
November 29th, 2008 at 3:46 pm
@ Afrikano
Your missing my point man..I wasnt trying to condemn the song because its Music, or because hes singing A-RAB Money..its not racist..because hes bigging up Arab ppl for being rich..my problem is him mentioning Allah in this song. Point blank period.
November 30th, 2008 at 12:18 am
Maktub….appreciate the transalations for every one to know what busta was saying and giving the actual names of the rappers….I am a muslim…..I see where your coming from when you say that the song is wrong because you think Busta is “mocking” the religion….this i dont understand the meaning of…Busta is a muslim….why would he mock islam, his own religion?….you can say the song is wrong because he is including verses from the quran in a song…which i agree SHOULD not be allowed…not allowed but shouldnt be happening……Ultimately everything you said was right…except for the fact that you said Busta should go to hell…inshallah?????…cumon now….your gonna pray for your own brother to go to hell?…and someone who is a big influence on other people? who could maybe even help the religion….I remember reading a hadees…forgot which one lol…but the main concept was that this religious and pieous guy told this “bad” muslim that he would go to hell for doing the things he does……Just because the peious guy said the other 1 would go to hell…he, himself was sent to hell while the other to janah….dont get me wrong..just wanna help you out..after all were all brothers….aslamalakum
April 22nd, 2009 at 12:41 pm
ai yo ppl stop hatin on Busta, its called freedom of speech, yol r sayin us christians iz disrespectin yol bt itz yo own peepz. aint it promotin islam in sum weird way?
December 28th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
what the hell is up with hating on lil’wayne sayin he a devil and shit? so what if he ain’t a damn muslim get over it. not everyone is and that’s good lil’wayne is the bomb! busta is a muslim look it up!! i don’t like him any way the song is gay. i’m just tired of people hatin on wayne.
