Me,it's Ja
Ja, Come in man
What up Ja, what's poppin'
What up Uncle Ju Ju
Yeah I know man you gettin' big tell me about it what's good
It's crazy man, you know my teacher
Had the nerve to ask me for your autograph
What, she asked for my autograph in the class
I had to tell her man I'm here to learn
This ain't the time or the place for that
You crazy man say word
Word
You a trip lil' nigga you know that,
What you tell her after that
I said a dipset bitch
A a a, come on man you cant be doin it like that at five man,
You got to get another decade with you at least
You know that you the only thing they talk about in my school
Word
Not cause you that nigga
Why
But because I'm that nigga
You all I talk about

Some of the kids can hardly talk

Yeah yeah I know what you talkin' about nigga I know
Word uncle Ju Ju
Yo man come on man you gotta stop
With that uncle Ju Ju shit man know what I mean

And let everybody else call you Juelz aight

Wo wo wo, dont be gettin all mushy on me man,

Now that I've got your attention
[Repeat: x5]
I'm what the games been missing
What you about to witness is something that you haven't been witness'in
I'm what the games been missing
The Intro by Dame Dash featuring rapper Ja Rule is a conversation between two individuals with a significant age difference. The older person appears to be Dash, who is fondly referred to as Uncle Ju Ju by Ja Rule, while Ja Rule is a five-year-old child. The conversation is about Ja Rule's current state, with him telling Dash how his teacher asked for his autograph in class, and how he responded with "a dipset bitch." Dash scolds him for it, insisting he needs at least another decade to carry out such behavior. Ja Rule talks about how other kids in school talk about him, and how he is the missing piece in the game at the moment, suggesting that he is the talent that the industry has been lacking.
The conversation is particularly interesting because it displays the rapport between two artists who at the time were at the top of their game. The Intro also showcases Dame Dash's skill as a producer, making use of a poignant narrative to set the tone for the album. The use of Ja Rule as a child speaking to Dash, who is more of a father figure, is also significant. It suggests that Ja Rule is talking about a crucial developmental phase in his life, and Dame Dash is urging him to make the best of it.
