Music video
The
Dave Meyers directed video features Elliott on a farm, dancing under a
UFO, on a stage as a beauty queen being cheered on by a crowd of
Bratz dolls, in a car where one of the other passengers eats a man after he sets off the car alarm, and on the
Empire State Building in a parody of
King Kong. This is the second song where Elliott references
Aaliyah, as her picture is on Elliott's desk in the beginning of the music video. The song also features the first verse and chorus of "Wake Up" alongside cameo appearances from former
106 & Park personality
Free and Elliott's former protégé
Lil' Brianna. Images of Aaliyah are displayed on t-shirts worn by Elliott and back up dancers in this closing segment.
