"'Rider Pt. 2'" is a song recorded by G-Unit. It was released in April 2008 as the second single from their second album, 'TOS (Terminate on Sight)'. The song was featured on G-Unit's mixtape, 'Elephant In The Sand' and the beat was originally used in 'Where Them Hammerz At?' by 40 Glocc,[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWtB896_RMY 40 Glocc - Where them Hammerz At?] and he was also featured on a version of Rider Pt. 2. 50 Cent uses the Auto-Tune effect in the intro and chorus of the song. The track is a diss toward fellow East Coast-rapper Fat Joe. The clean version removes all profanity while the video version removes all profanity and violence. Almost half of the lyrics were censored.
