Performer Notes

Producers include: Teamstas, DJ Scratch, Jay D, Shock, Swizz Beatz.
"Fire" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video.
Busta Rhymes is an artist who never seems to forget how to make a hit record. His fifth solo album ANARCHY displays more of that infallibility, and further proves that the New York-native's longevity in hip-hop is well deserved.
On the first single, "Get Outta Here," Busta employs the same style of kiddie chorus that blew up Jay-Z's "Hard Knock Life." The song is calmer than his previous leadoff singles, but don't fret; the follow-up, "Fire," brings the heat as only Busta can. With production by Rockwilder, Swizz Beatz, and others, Busta Rhymes' ANARCHY may easily become another classic.
