Music video

The official music video was shot in Los Angeles by director Colin Tilley on November 23, 2010 and was released on December 15. A 3D music video was released on 50 Cent's blog. The video begins in a club where a woman is dancing with an umbrella while dancing in front of the speakers. Meanwhile, Jeremih is seen on a chair while a woman is dancing beside him and also another woman is seen dancing while jamming her guitar. During the rap verse, 50 Cent is seen rapping his verse through a hole in the wall which is revealed to be a bar. Then, Jeremih and 50 Cent are seen separated in a rectangular wall while Jeremih sings the song. At the end of the video, Jeremih and 50 Cent stare at the camera while the video fades.[3]
