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, SuprΓͺme 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.
Puffin' on a Cloud
The Beatnuts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uhm yeah, uhm yeah, oh yeahhh
Rolling over the GW
On the west side you on the
Way to the buddah spot
And all of a sudden you start hearing these
Little voices in your head like yo?
Puffin' on a cloud feelin' high
Happens every time whenever I'm with my guy
Trippin' on love and it feels so good
I can't help myself and I
Wouldn't if I could
Off to the Poconos with a couple hoes
In high heels with open toes
Blowing smoke out my broken nose
Bent at the cafe like smoking Joe
Ask me if I'm choking no!
I'm seriously bout it like MP
I'm a shout it come early and rowdy cause
It's gonna get crowded
Hold on to your honey we all about it
When we start that puffin' watch the
Place get cloudy you can't breathe
After the show honey screaming
Les you can't leave
But I gotta, so I grab my main squeeze
And bounce to the telly to
Drink and blaze trees
Puffin' on a cloud feelin' high
Happens every time whenever I'm with my guy
Trippin on love and it feels so good
I can't help myself and I
Wouldn't if I could
Yo, I only fuck around with you
Cause the rest would tell
You know you love it plus we
Do it in the best hotels
Ain't nothing like them niggas you had
You be sad, ju the nigga you could never
Introduce to your dad
Nobody keep it realer then
You that's so true
Body any man who dares to
Put his hands on you
Expense paid vacation for two surprise boo
Make you scream like a gypsy
When I'm putting it through
Leave it swollen go tell all
Your friends Ju is holding
Guaranteed to make honey nut
My shit is golden
Never folding like twenty boxes of trojans
Hard like an iceberg honey
Thinking it's frozen
Make you get sweaty and hot ready or not
Laying up in tellys with plenty of pot
Dru Hill don't know what I
Got they better stop
Puffin' on a cloud feelin' high
Happens every time whenever I'm with my guy
Trippin on love and it feels so good
I can't help myself and I
Wouldn't if I could
Puffin' on a cloud feelin' high
Happens every time whenever I'm with my guy
Trippin on love and it feels so good
I can't help myself and I
Wouldn't if I could
When the beat thumps it makes the
Gold on your neck vibrate
Surprise the tri-state unexpected like
A blind date
Crime rate goes up every time we drop
We can't be stopped every time we
Chop beats like a meat shop
I know we gotta reach y'all since you
Can't reach us through dis-connected beepers
I'm a monster for music so prepare
For a creature double feature
Take a seat I'm gonna teach y'all
Take notes forget them Cristal clowns
Beatnuts baby how real hip-hop sound
Refresh your memory with a Psycho Les melody
Yo what the fuck you telling me?
What the fuck you selling me?
I only cop it if it's that
Potent thing grown in Poland springs
And one very very important thing
Always quality and not quantity
Unless it's not the hy-drilly and
Naturally better look out faggot
Puffin' on a cloud feelin' high
Happens every time whenever I'm with my guy
Trippin on love and it feels so good
I can't help myself and I
Wouldn't if I could
