"Been Around the World" is a song by American rapper Puff Daddy, featuring the Notorious B.I.G. and Mase and included on Puff Daddy's debut studio album "No Way Out" (1997). The song samples David Bowie's 1983 hit song "Let's Dance", and contains an interpolation of Lisa Stansfield's song "All Around the World", sung by the Notorious B.I.G. in the chorus. In the album version, the song concludes with a skit featuring an interview with "The Mad Producer".
The song was released as a single on November 14, 1997; it was the fourth single released from the album. Like the previous three singles, which all reached No. 1 or No. 2 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 chart, "Been Around the World" hit No. 2 on the chart, in the first two weeks of 1998. "Been Around the World" did reach No. 1 on "Billboard"'s Hot Rap Tracks and Hot R&amp;B/Hip-Hop Songs charts.
The song's music video was directed by Paul Hunter. It features Mase and Puff Daddy as spies. The video includes appearances by Vivica A. Fox, Quincy Jones, Wyclef Jean and Jennifer Lopez.
