"FuckWithMeYouKnowIGotIt" is a song by rapper Jay-Z recorded for his twelfth studio album Magna Carta Holy Grail. The song features Def Jam labelmate rapper Rick Ross. The song was produced by the Toronto, Canada producer Boi-1da, Vinylz, Timbaland and J-Roc. The song has peaked at number 64 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. Complex ranked "FuckWithMeYouKnowIGotIt" number 20 on their list of the 50 best songs of 2013.[1]

Production

The instrumental for "FuckWithMeYouKnowIGotIt" was started by Vinylz who was inspired by a Pimp C speech he found on YouTube. He sampled his voice for the intro and then created the rest of the song in "like five minutes." After fellow producer Boi-1da did some more work on it, it was sent to Rick Ross who intended to use it for his album, Mastermind. Jay-Z was supposed to add a guest verse to it, but when he heard the instrumental, he wanted the track for his album. Timbaland added additional changes to it before the final version was created for the album.[2] Rick Ross, however, recorded a solo version, dubbed "You Know I Got It (Reprise)," for his album Mastermind as a deluxe edition bonus track in 2014.
