Can-I-Bus is the first full-length album released by rapper Canibus through Universal Records on September 8, 1998. The album was released after the rapper achieved enormous success with his LL Cool J diss track, "Second Round K.O.", which was included on Can-I-Bus, with additional support from heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson. However, after the album arrived in stores, disbelief and disappointment could often be noted in those who purchased it; the beats, created mostly by Wyclef Jean, were criticized for their blandness and unoriginality (with a fair amount of the criticizm coming from Canibus), while other listeners were discouraged by Canibus' distinctive lyrics.
