Busta Rhymes: No, I didn’t think that it would piss any people off because that wasn’t the intent. The intent of the record was to embrace the awareness level that I felt needed to be embraced by the people about the greatness and the significance of this beautiful culture. I felt like the Arab culture and Arab people have exemplified being able to value the significance of the rich qualities in what they value as their spirituality and God all the way down to the financial and economic stability. I have a lot of friends that are Arab and I got a lot of friends from the Middle East in general, I just didn’t think it was fair this culture was being subjected to so much that it just didn’t deserve it.
