"Ego Trippin' (Part Two)" is the second single from De La Soul's Buhloone Mindstate, released in 1994. The song (and its music video) were a scathing parody on gangsta rap, and caught the attention of rappers such as Ice Cube, and Tupac Shakur, who unfortunately took exception to the video's images of a rapper splashing around in a pool, rather similar to Shakur's own video for his song "I Get Around".
The song never had a "Part One". The "Part Two" in the title is a reference to Ultramagnetic MC's "Ego Trippin'".
