1. A American Hip Hop group.
2. A Japanese instrumental latin jazz-fusion group.
1. The Beatnuts are a hip hop group and production duo from Queens, New York City. Its current members are JuJu and Psycho Les. JuJu (born Jerry Tineo on December 4, 1968) is Dominican American from Corona and Psycho Les (born Lester Fernandez on April 10, 1972) is a Colombian American from Jackson Heights. The Beatnuts were originally a trio before Kool Fashion, now known as Al' Tariq, left the group to start a solo career. The Mighty V.I.C. (Groove Merchantz, Ghetto Pros) was also a member of The Beatnuts' production team for a while.
Early on in their career they produced whole albums for Posse members Common Sense and Chi-Ali. Their production is noted as some of the finest and most accomplished, if unheralded, in all of hip-hop, often intricately detailed (as in their finely honed work for Mos Def on two tracks from Black on Both Sides) but more regularly barnstorming, club-friendly, flourish-laden party music. Jennifer Lopez used their track "Watch Out Now" as the instrumental for her song "Jenny from the Block". The Beatnuts produced more songs for the artists they had previously collaborated with as well as Fat Joe, Suprême NTM and Da Youngsta's. At the same time, The Beatnuts made their name as remix specialists by remixing songs for MC Lyte, Da Lench Mob, Naughty by Nature, Jomanda and others.
The Beatnuts are noted for being unabashedly, bullishly ribald and in-your-face performers. Recent Beatnuts albums are characterised by more Latin influences.
Less known is they are considered part of the Native Tongues collective. The Beatnuts are the only Latino members of the Native Tongues collective. Although only peripheral members, they are routinely acknowledged by Q-Tip.

Psycho Les:
I'm an outcast nigga like Andre, and eve if you don't know me, you know i'm someone importante. I love raps, ?rocks?, and Ashanti. Now it's time to throw me in the mix with Beyonce. Crazy in love for the Golden Platty. Here's a drink toast up and light a fatty. I had to roll around the block because shorty had a fatty. Take a second look looking sporty in the Caddie. So fresh and so bling mang, doing the damn thing mang, we pack those metal things that ricochet like bing bang. I sling slang for a paycheck with the same tec and even if I wasn't a trainwreck I couldn't fall off track, i'm all that, fallback, chu ch blow! ?caldat?. Lines is busy call back. I'm very busy in fact all you haters in the back, it's a big disgrace you need to do like Kanye and fix your face.

Yo. I'm just too much. I'm just too hot to touch. You're too corny man, you're too ?von dutch?. I'll show you how to smash it up, 'cause homie if i'm not popping the trunk, i'm popping the clutch. It's Junkyard the alltime great the one with the uncanny ability to flip all breaks. This year we going to do what it takes. And that includes beating niggas down and extorting they cake. It's our time, we overdue. The streets is starving for this shit so we bringing it through. I spit so heat like i'm supposed to do and that's for you and anybody that's close to you. It's Beatnuts ?le cremnda crem? if shorty acts up then you know i'm going to bend her friend from her mouth straight to her rearend then back again. I put it down like that boy again and again.
You buggin, mean muggin, you must be buggin (4x)

That's why they call me el ?hef?, head honcho, big balls, Fact remains i been in this game since they won. They call me hot, cool, ambitious with my rhyme and my tounge. Just for fun I talk shit to see the expression on your face, but then it turns into business when I start rocking the place. Once again i'm fantastic, and yes I come ?crush? I get furious, no treachorus when I bust. I stay funky at times, i'm always busy as a bee. A true pioneer believe that, a real MC. Though my sounds are so sonic as I rip with force, I'm cool like ?hurt? and in a flash I go off. I rock steady like Eddie ?jeeber? ?sweeter for me to go? Hollywood, like a true player should. I come back because i'm fearless I know that you ?feared it? back to day one from the Bronx, where i'm from. I'm fresh, fly, ?wild?, fresh out the pack like back in the days of love raps. Say white lines flip that, funky beat dip that, ba bum ba ba ba ba flip that, rip that shit from back in the day, the Bronx Peurto Rican still getting paid.

The Beatnuts' song "Buggin'" is a classic hip-hop track with raw and gritty lyrics that exude an old-school vibe. The song features Big Psych, Psycho Les, Juju, and Prince Whipper Whip, who all take turns to deliver their verses in a seamless and energetic manner. The song opens with the unmistakable vocal greeting of Prince Whipper Whip, who introduces himself as the Bronx Peurto Rican Prince and the rest of the group. The lyrics touch upon different aspects of the artists' lives, including their love for rap, women, hip-hop culture, and the pursuit of success.
In the first verse, Psycho Les compares himself to Andre 3000, the eccentric Outkast rapper, and boasts about his significance in the rap game. He also references his fondness for the R&B singer Ashanti and Beyonce's hit song "Crazy in Love," which won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song in 2004. Juju takes over in the second verse and uses wordplay to assert his dominance as an MC. He refers to himself as Junkyard, the all-time great, and highlights his talent for flipping beats while also warning his competitors of his violent tendencies. Prince Whipper Whip closes the song with a powerful verse that showcases his fearless attitude and hip-hop pedigree.
The chorus of the song, which repeats the phrase "You buggin, mean muggin, you must be buggin," is a catchy and memorable hook that adds to the song's overall appeal.
