The Queens native built his reputation with street-level mixtapes and quickly became one of the city's leading DJs, graced with the latest tracks by the biggest names. Popular New York hip-hop station Hot 97 brought him aboard for a while in the late '90s alongside fellow DJ heavyweight Funkmaster Flex. The air time furthered his reputation, and Jay-Z in turn invited him to join forces with Roc-a-Fella, which released Clue?'s major-label debut, The Professional (1997). The album featured primarily exclusive tracks, each boasting one of New York's top rappers, everyone from Nas and Mobb Deep to DMX and Ja Rule.
A second volume followed in 2000, and in the meantime Clue? toured with Roc-a-Fella in support of Jay-Z's Hard Knock Life album as documented on Backstage (2000). He then parted ways with Roc-a-Fella and embarked on his own path, establishing Desert Storm Records and debuting Fabolous in 2001. Years later, once Jay-Z ascended to the position of president of Def Jam, Clue? recorded The Professional, Pt. 3 (2006).

Somethin 'bout you, I don't know, HA HA~!
Yeah...
[Rashad (Styles P):]
Heyyyy-yayyyyy
You're the one (yeah)
You're the one, yeahhhh (that's what it feels like)
[Styles P:]
You're my favorite drug, amazin love
Cause you never, tell your friends where David was
Got a blunt blaze it up, we can get a room in the Trump
That's the one with our favorite tub
Damn you fly, why lie when I get high
All I do is think about how I'ma ride them thighs
I ain't never been one to make no girly songs
But I'll be up in this chick 'til the early morn'
Mighta came with some Temples but those Shirleys gone
She laughin makin a joke she gon' sell out porns
Got me head over heels, puffin on a dutch
Thinkin to myself, might spread some bread for some wheels
I might be wrong, but honey is right
Got to have my back strong when I come for the night
Her "Milkshake" bring my ass to the yard and we don't care
If we do it in the telly or the back of the car, what?
[Chorus: Rashad]
You're my favorite drug, get me high
Like the skies above, yeah
Feels like I'm in love, I'm so high
You're my favorite drug
[Styles P:]
Stoned as usual; pickin up my chick
We gon' bone as usual; she been talkin shit
On the phone as usual - pull up on the block
In somethin real nice on chrome as usual
Either one of us don't care where we headed
Park the truck, get a dutch, watch "American Wedding"
I like her cause she cool, graduated school
Got a mean stick in pool
Cut a nigga quicker than me she a fool
When everybody flip she was still playin rules
She the shit like some stools
I'm open like the windows is
Everytime we have sex I'm in limbo kid
And she make me stop quicker than my brimbles did
So no longer do I care where the fuck them other bimbos is
She's my favorite drug, the shit so serious
Me, her and purple, point black period
[Chorus: w/ ad libs]
[Styles P:]
Me and her been doin it far too much
'Til the 55 box of cigars is up
Right before checkout time is the hardest nut
The valet call the room and say the cars is up
A dutch and a shot, that's what P thing is
Then I be all up in that ass like them G strings is
She is my favorite drug, so is the purple
So I get 'em both together then I blaze 'em up
[Chorus: w/ ad libs]
[Rashad:]
Drug.. drug.. drug..
Only one I want in my life
Only one I want in my LIFE~!
Ohhhhh-hoooo, yeah-yeahhhhh
Drug.. drug.. drug.. [fades]
The song "Favorite Drug" by DJ Clue featuring Styles P and Rashad is a track about an intense and somewhat addictive infatuation with a woman. The woman, whom Styles P refers to as his favorite drug, seems to have a hold on him and takes up a significant proportion of his time. The lyrics suggest that the relationship with the woman may be centered around drug use, with references to blunts and the purple haze, and the act of sex as a high or euphoria. Rashad's chorus hook, "You're my favorite drug, get me high, like the skies above," reinforces the notion that the woman is the subject of the relationship's obsession, with the man always wanting to spend time with her.
Styles P's verse reveals that he has strong feelings for the woman, stating that she is amazing, and he is constantly consumed with thoughts and desires for her. Despite not being one to write "girly songs," he expresses that he wants to stay with her until the early morning hours. The chorus suggests that the relationship is purely physical, emphasizing the "high" and "love" that the subject experiences when he is with the woman, but the verse does not necessarily contradict this idea. Instead, it highlights his appreciation for her and the connection that they have.
Overall, "Favorite Drug" is a song that captures the intense feelings that can arise when someone becomes infatuated with another person. The lyrics illustrate the overwhelming desire that one person might have for someone they find irresistible, emphasizing the idea of addiction, and relating it to the use of drugs as a way of heightening sensations.
