I've heard this one several times in rap songs etc. but haven't found out what it means exactly. Is it short for "Tell me if I'm wrong"?
 
Please feel free to accuse me of being an old-fashioned stick-in-the-mud, but I really wouldn't recommend rap for learning English.

To answer your question - sorry - no idea. I suspect that it's a string of words that match the surrounding rhyme and rhythm.

It means nothing in standard English.
 
Interesting! :-D
