Short for "Brotha Tones", which is a much needed term for the backup vocal parts in newer rap/hip hop music which mostly consist of short rhythmic repetition of words like "Hey", "What?", "Yo" etc. These are used to accentuate the beat and sometimes lends to syncopation, generally making the song more dance-able.
