Details

• 'Can-I-Bus' is the debut album by Canibus and was considered a major disappointment by hip hop fans who had expected a classic based on the strength of the rappers early features. The fans reaction to the album was so scathing that Canibus apologised for it and in his 2000 song '2000 B.C.' he blamed the producer Wyclef for its poor performance "you mad at the last album I apologize for it, I can't call it, motherfucking Wyclef spoiled it".
  
  
• The song features the typical battle raps, wordplay and punchlines one has come to expect from Canibus only this time they are mixed with a British theme with references including the Beefeaters, James Bond and Queen Elizabeth II.
