Common - The B*tch In Yoo (Full Breakdown) | Every Bar Explained

Common's "The B*tch In Yoo" is widely regarded as one of the greatest diss tracks of all time, but many of its hardest-hitting lines, hidden references, and clever wordplay often go unnoticed.

In this video, I break down every verse of Common's legendary response to Ice Cube, explaining the lyrics line by line, uncovering the subliminal shots, and providing the historical context behind one of hip-hop's most underrated rap beefs.

From the opening bars to the final punchlines, we'll explore:

The meaning behind Common's lyrics
Hidden references and double entendres
The shots aimed directly at Ice Cube
References to Westside Slaughterhouse and the West Coast
The events that led to the Common vs. Ice Cube feud
Why "The B*tch In Yoo" is still considered one of the best lyrical diss records ever made

Whether you're hearing the song for the first time or have listened to it for years, this breakdown will help you catch details you may have missed.

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
A b**** n**** with a attitude named Cube
Stepped to the Com' with a feud
Now, what the f*** I look like dissin' a whole coast?
You ain't made s*** dope since AmeriKKKa's Most
Wanted deceased from the Midwest to the East
On the d**k of the East for your first release
Your lease is up at the crib, house n****s get evicted
In videos with white boys, talkin' you get Wicked
Natural Born Killa? N***a, you natural born God
Read, rich! Got the nerve to say you rob
Hypocrite, I'm fillin' out your Death Certificate
Slangin' bean pies and St. Ide's in the same sentence
Shoulda repented on the 16th of October
Get some beats besides George Clinton to rock over
Rap career is over, better off actin'
What trouble I see in managin' WC and Wack 10?
You backed into a 4-Corner Hustla
Lyin' on your d**k, said you was f****n' her
Use higher learning, don't take my words outta 'text
Went from gangsta to Islam to the d**k of Das EFX
It'll take the nation of millions to hold me back
From givin' you mouth shots, or hit with the pipe that Ralph got
Chris Tucker ain't around, it's your Friday, it was good
I wasn't salty she was with the Boyz N the Hood

[Verse 2]
The ump of this rap s**t — Cube I'm callin' out
I break in and smack n****s that's in the Slaughterhouse
This ain't no East Coast, West Coast, none of the above
I'm from Chi, I went to Cali (And what?), n****s gave me love
There's a thin line between the fake and the real
Grafted-ass n***a, I see through your "Glass Shield"
Had skills once upon a time on this project, yo
I'm a have to wreck a HO'Shea
I heard a ho say you her favorite rapper
(So what?) So I had to slap her, uh!
And violate you (You), a Muslim drinkin' brew (Brew)
Your n***a ain't no Mack 10, he's a 22
I seen you (Mack 10), you ain't say s**t in ATL
Cube, I like that diamond charm, I might cuff it, then sell
It out, like you sold Kam and Threat
A year ago, you wasn't talkin' s**t about the West
Guess you knew yo' s**t was done, plus the one got you cable
Hoo-bangin'? You ain't bangin' s**t but the table
And the Circle MAAD (Uhhh)
Ain't got no choice but to fight (Come on)
Ain't none of y'all motherf*****s got a chance on the mic
Any time you come out, Joe, I'ma talk about you
Until you let that b***h in you walk up out you
Any last words before I hit the switch?
From the immortal words of one: "A b***h iz a..."
