Overall Meaning

The opening lines of the song β€œIt's On” by Beanie Sigel Feat. Jay-Z, set the tempo of the song by calling out for everyone to report to the dance floor immediately as the song starts. The chorus is about throwing hands up, with various groups being called out, including bitches, hustlers, boasters, and hoes. The first verse describes how Beanie Sigel comes to the club with his squad, all carrying guns while drinking Cristal and looking for women. The chorus is repeated in between the two verses. Jay-Z's verse is directed at other rappers, claiming that his label Roc-a-Fella Records is supreme and that he has more power than the other rappers he is calling out. He also describes how he spends his time with women and his friends at the club.
