After hearing feedback that Lil Jon was "the new guy" from street team people in the markets where he was attracting his biggest audiences β namely Atlanta, St. Louis, Memphis and Dallas β A&R at TVT, Bryan Leach, went to one of his Atlanta shows and was blown away by the immense energy of the experience.[7] Leach told HitQuarters: "It was like early Beastie Boys, when they had the energy of a rock group but they were rapping, and ... that energy is what crunk music is all about." Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz signed to TVT Records in 2001 and debuted there with Put Yo Hood Up, which combined previously released tracks with new ones. The group's first nationally played single was "Bia' Bia'", which featured rappers Ludacris, Too Short, Big Kapp, and Chyna Whyte.[1] "Bia' Bia'" peaked at No. 97 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 47 on the Billboard R&B chart.[6]
In 2002, the group released Kings of Crunk. "I Don't Give A..." was its first single; it featured Mystikal and Krayzie Bone and peaked at No. 50 on the R&B chart. The group's next single, a collaboration with fellow Atlanta hip hop group Ying Yang Twins titled "Get Low", became popular in nightclubs nationwide and reached the top ten of the Hot 100.Crunk Juice followed in 2004, led by "What U Gon' Do" featuring Lil' Scrappy. "What U Gon' Do" peaked at No. 22 on the Hot 100, No. 13 on the R&B chart, and No. 5 on the rap chart; its follow-up, "Lovers & Friends" featuring Usher and Ludacris, peaked at No. 3 (Hot 100), No. 2 (R&B), and No. 1 (rap).

Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Ok ok
Motherfucker, y'all know who it is
Lil' Jon, the motherfuckin' East Side Boyz, yeah
I got my nigga Jadakiss with me too (D-Block, live son)
We gon' do this for all the real motherfuckin' niggas (Uh uh uh uh yo)
Holla at them niggas J, come on
And bitches always want to hit me like I just came home
But I still put the tools in ya mouth
Niggas know that I'm a monster on the East, but I'm huge in the South
'Cause it's evil in the trenches and everybody starvin'
So to get the money right we put the deisel on the benches
"Down Bottom" feel like the ol' days
Fuckin' with the corn liquor ridin' around listen to O'Jays
When we loadin' the clip every slug gotta catch
When you goin' to war every thug got his match
SS baby, blue Impala with the MAC in it
Big gold cup with rhinestones with my pack in it
It's like the jungle but the broads is fine
And if they ain't puffin' crippie, then this Georgia pine
Listen, I'm the wrong nigga to style with
From a motherfuckin' problem to reconcile with
Nigga what

P'll go to war and ain't never have to bring a nigga
My gun is armed and my bullets like a finger nigga
Call up Lil' Jon and them East Side Boyz
All I need is a lil' bomb and side East Side toys
You can catch me in the Dirty South, I got a dirty mouth
Sittin' on the roof with the fuckin' 30-30's out
I told you I'm a menace y'all
I got enough guns to fill up the Lennox Mall
In the front parking lot, coke still movin' good
Guns still spark a lot
Hustlin' with family, partyin' with murderers
D-Block and everything, shit you probably heard of us
Yeah I'm a Ryder nigga, you ain't got a gun
Or a motherfuckin' knife, you ain't even gon' try us nigga
I'll leave you with a hole daddy
And for the fact that I'm in the Dirty South
I'll be bouncin' in the old Caddy
What, motherfucker
The lyrics to "Knockin Heads Off" by Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz featuring Jadakiss and Styles P are focused on the idea of violence and aggression. The opening vocals set the tone of the song, where Lil Jon asserts his dominance as a rapper "Motherfucker, y'all know who it is / Lil' Jon, the motherfuckin' East Side Boyz." The song progresses with Kiss and Styles P taking their turns, and speaking their truth. There's a level of confidence and bravado in their lyrics that call upon their audience to face their fears: "I ain't scared of no nigga, I ain't scared of no bitch." The song then transitions into a chant-like chorus of the trio saying they are "knocking heads off" and challenging anyone who dares to stand in their way.
Throughout the song, Jadakiss and Styles P rap about their stature in the music game, and their relationships with women. The lyrics convey a deeper message that they come from a world where violence is a harsh reality: "It's like the jungle but the broads are fine / And if they ain't puffin' crippie, then this Georgia pine." They don't shy away from their lives of crime and the risks they take daily: "My gun is armed and my bullets like a finger nigga." In the same fashion, the hook "we knockin' heads off" speaks to their unwillingness to let anyone stand in their way, and are willing to remove anyone that does.
Overall, "Knockin Heads Off" is a song presented to demonstrate the rapper's dominance in the rap game while reflecting on their harsh reality and the violence that surrounds them. The lyrics, while crude at times, convey a deep message with an underlying story.
