"1, 2 Pass It" is a collaboration song by the short lived D&D All-Stars, a group consisting of Doug E. Fresh, Fat Joe, Jeru the Damaja, KRS-One, Mad Lion and Smif-N-Wessun. It is produced by DJ Premier, and is the only single on its album, The D&D Project. Each rapper gets their own verse excluding Tek and Steele of Smif-N-Wessun who share a verse. A music video made for its remix contains footage of all of the song's rappers and DJ Premier. They are in a city environment while a man writes "D&D" in graffiti. Its b-side is "Look Alive" by Big C with production by Diamond D.

Lyrics from Fat Joe's verse were later sampled, and used in the chorus of Jay-Z's "Bring It On."
