“What?” is a short uptempo song on The Low End Theory solely featuring bars from Q-Tip and no hook at all. The motif is Q-Tip asking a series of questions—some rhetorical, some nonsensical. The lines follow the pattern of starting with “What?” The sparse track entirely consists of a loop of the Paul Humphrey song called “Uncle Willie’s Dream” (1974). The track’s bouncy momentum culminates into a group shout of “What!!” that leads directly into the album’s crown jewel posse cut, “Scenario.”
