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).

DJ Clue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come and talk to me
I really wanna meet you, girl
I really wanna know your name
Come and talk to me
I really wanna meet you, girl
I really wanna know your name
'Cause you look so sexy; you really turn me on
'Cause you look so sexy; you really turn me on
Blow my mind every time I see your face
[Fabolous]
And even though whatever they call you
Forever I'm loyal, do whatever to spoil you
The way you fit them jeans, seven should call you
That ass have me makin' heavy withdrawals
I'm smooth when I approach, and I stare at them stones
Make you move in with the coach, and leave them players alone
We could talk 'bout it, get a bottle, pull the cork out it
One convo, and then you in the condo
[Jagged Edge]
I've been watching you for so very long
I'm trying to get my nerve built up, and be so strong
I really wanna meet you, but I'm kinda scared
'Cause you're the kinda lady with so much class
I get my thoughts together for the very next day
But when I see you, lady, I forget what to say
Your eyes and hair, such a beautiful tone
The way you dress and walk; it really turns me on
Come and talk to me
I really wanna meet you
Can I talk to you?
I really wanna know you
Come and talk to me
I really wanna meet you
Can I talk to you?
I really wanna know you
[Jagged Edge]
There you are again, since finally, babe
I wanna know what it is that make you feel this way
I wish I could grab you, tell you what it means to me
You walking my way, and it really makes my day
Before I go to leave, and dream about you
I'm a single man, and I hope you are single too
But we'll see something that will set my mind free
'Cause curiosity is bugging the hell out of me, yeah
You wanna tell me your name?
I wanna play your game
You wanna tell me your name?
I wanna play your game
[Fabolous]

F to the A, B
See, I catch a girl eye when I play the club
'Cause they ain't seen a diamond dance like this
Since Lisa Ray in the players club
They might say it's love, but you seen the way it rub
I would say they must've missed a couple inches, boo
I seen them heels you wearing a couple inches too
Come with me, I'll show you what a couple inches do
But first, I was hoping on
We could sit and talk
You know, get our Oprah on
And we can down martinis
Faster than Lamborghinis
At places where they only wear trunks and bikinis
I don't talk game like a sports commentator
That'll get you sex now
And a court problem later
I rather be real, 'cause even while having these mils
I'm down to earth, like gravity still
But you look so sexy
You really turn me on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
[Jagged Edge]
I wanna know
Whoa
Whoa
Won't you tell me your name?
Oh, oh
The lyrics of Dj Clue ft. Jagged Edge & Fabolous's song I Really Wanna Know You is about a man who is trying to muster up the courage to approach the woman he's been admiring from afar. The song opens with Jagged Edge expressing his desire to get to know the girl he's been eyeing. He thinks she's sexy and admires every aspect of her beauty. He says her appearance enthralls him and blows his mind every time he sees her face. He urges her to come talk to him so he can know her name and possibly start a connection. Verse two is by Fabolous, who expresses his loyalty and admiration for the woman he's after. He's mesmerized by her perfect body and would love to explore a relationship with her. He assures her that he'd do anything to spoil her and keep her happy, and promises to treat her better than other men who may only want her for her body.
In the chorus, Jagged Edge again implores the woman to come and talk to him, and even though he's been watching her for a long time, he's yet to muster the courage to approach her. He thinks she's a lady with so much class, and so he tries to get his nerve up so he can meet her. Every time he tries to get his thoughts together to talk to her, he finds himself getting tongue-tied by her stunning beauty. The last verse is a continuation of Jagged Edge's passion for the woman. He's still enamored with her and would do anything to be with her. He longs to know what it is about her that makes her so captivating, and would love to know her name so he can play her game.

See, I catch a girl eye when I play the club
I attract a lot of attention from women when I perform in nightclubs
Cause they ain't seen a diamond dance like this
I am unique and have a special way of performing
Since Lisa Ray in the players club
The last time someone danced like me was in the movie Players Club featuring Lisa Ray
They might say it's love, but you seen the way it rub
People may say they love me, but I know it's really just lust
I would say they must've missed a couple inches, boo
They must be missing some important parts of me (either physically or personality-wise)
I seen them heels you wearing a couple inches too
I noticed the heels you are wearing add a few extra inches to your height
Come with me, I'll show you what a couple inches do
If you come with me, I will show you what I can do to make you feel good
But first, I was hoping on We could sit and talk
Before anything else, I want to get to know you better through conversation
You know, get our Oprah on
Have a deep and meaningful discussion like Oprah Winfrey's show
And we can down martinis
We can have some drinks together
Faster than Lamborghinis
We can drink so quickly that it's like we're racing Lamborghinis
At places where they only wear trunks and bikinis
We can go to exotic locations where people wear minimal clothing
I don't talk game like a sports commentator
I don't try to manipulate or talk like a player to win you over
That'll get you sex now And a court problem later
Talking like a player may get you sex initially but could lead to legal issues later on
I rather be real, 'cause even while having these mils
I prefer to be honest and genuine, even with my wealth
I'm down to earth, like gravity still
I am humble and grounded, despite my success
You look so sexy, You really turn me on, and on, and on
You are incredibly attractive and make me very aroused
