They Don't Know is the second single off of Houston based rapper Paul Wall's debut album "The Peoples Champ". The album's version of the song features Mike Jones. There is also a remix that features Lil Keke, Slim Thug, Big Hawk, Bun B, and Trae. The video is a composite of both versions of the song featuring both Bun B & Mike Jones, where Paul Wall's second verse is shortened for Bun B's verse. Lil Keke, Slim Thug and Killa Kyleon made cameo appearances in the video.

The chorus is made of various samples:
"They don't know what that star about, they don't know what that barre about, they don't know what that candy car about or smokin' that joint about" - Sampled by UGK's 'Wood Wheel'
"Texas is the home of the players and pimps" - Sampled by Lil Keke's 'Still Pimping Pens'
"Showin' naked ass in the great state of Texas" - Sampled by Lil Keke's 'Pimp Tha Pen'
