Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is it my cars, is it my clothes
That make these ho's want fuck fo' sho
Is it my style the way I roll
That makes these haters want hate some mo'
Is it that fifth that I drink, when
I'm in my whip wit the fresh ass paint
Want look at my face
An make these niggas
Wan be at my place
Or tell me is it my shirt,
That cost three hundred
That make me have to go to heaven with a gun,
Gone make a nigga hate my mommas son
Maybe it's my style, this the way I come
Or maybe its these ho's
That I've done be's
Maybe is yo sista or yo niece
Or how I rock my boes wit no crease
Or how I'm just so throwed and off the leash or
Tell me is it these shoes on my feet,
An how they matchin my fists so perfectly
That make a hata wanna
Go about they way on me
Nigga I don't even you, want to hate on me

Or how I holla at my people

Cause you know I signed a deal
And it my turn to act
Go put them big 24's
And that brand new Lac
In the song "What Is It," Webbie is questioning what it is about him that draws attention from both women and haters.

He also suggests that maybe it's the women he's been with or his niece that draws attention to him. He also speculates if it's his looks or his style that makes him so attractive. Despite the haters, he recognizes that he is successful and hot in the country, with big money and big stuntin'.
