"Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See" is a 1997 song by American rapper Busta Rhymes from his second studio album ''When Disaster Strikes'' (1997). Released as the lead single, the song includes samples from "Sweet Green Fields" by Seals and Crofts. It was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance at the 40th Grammy Awards, but lost to "Men in Black" by Will Smith. In addition to the Grammy nomination, the video also garnered four VMA nominations including Best Male Video and Best Rap Video at the 1998 MTV VMA's. The song became successful, it peaked at number 37 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100 Airplay chart, as well as reaching number two on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, whilst reaching number sixteen on the UK Singles Chart. In 1999, MTV ranked the video itself at #20 for ''The 100 Greatest Music Videos Ever Made''.〔()〕 The song was later sampled by R&B trio Total for their song "If You Want Me" off of their second album ''Kima, Keisha, and Pam'' (1998). ==Video== The song is best remembered by its music video, directed by Hype Williams, which features Busta waking up, getting dressed and brushing his teeth (along with his maids). The video is based on Eddie Murphy's 1988 film ''Coming to America''. According to Busta Rhymes, the inspiration for this idea was the fact that ''Coming to America'' was playing on the television in the studio at the time he and the production crew were working on mixing the record. The film is about an African living in New York City and Busta Rhymes felt that the record had an African sound to it.〔http://www.xxlmag.com/features/2012/08/busta-rhymes-reflects-on-the-making-of-put-your-hands-where-my-eyes-could-see-track-and-video/.

The video received heavy rotation on both the MTV and BET networks. The video was filmed at Chambers and Centre Street in Downtown Manhattan.
