COMMENTARY
No pt.2 is a hidden track from Queen of Hip-Pop. Since it doesn’t have any official title, fans named it either No pt.2 or Yes.
No pt.2 might hint at Destiny’s Child 1997 song No, No, No which also exists in two parts. The difference is that the process was reversed: in Destiny’s Child’s song, Part.1 is the mid-tempo ballad while part.2 featuring Wyclef Jean is the upbeat remixed version.
One can also see a similarity in the lyrics of the chorus:
Destiny’s Child: You’ll be sayin’ no, no, no, no, no
When it’s really yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Amuro Namie: When I say to you no, no, no
You know I’m really thinkin’ yes, yes, yes
