Music video

To coincide with the single release, Emcee N.I.C.E. Executive Produced a music video alongside Frank DeRozan, BJ Luster & Chani Gray who acquired the services of famed Director Earl "Slick Two Three" Bartlow (Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, Stevie J & Joseline: Go Hollywood) of Sharp Team Entertainment based in Atlanta, Georgia.

The story a mini-movie takes place in Atlanta, Georgia where Emcee N.I.C.E. does a live radio interview with prominent radio personality Lil Bankhead at hip-hop station Streetz 94.5 FM holding a night of your life contest for the tenth caller. The tenth caller "Tasha" played by actress/model Brittney Nicole calls in, wins the competition and invites her "party girls" co-stars Carly Daminga & Kita Hunt. Emcee N.I.C.E. with a party bus full of people, leaves station and picks up Tasha and her girls up dressed to impress.

The party bus is filled with vibrant and festive party goers already partying as they head over to a premier nightclub in Atlanta with Emcee N.I.C.E. to really live it up. When Tasha and her friends walk into the club to the V.I.P. they are instantly the main attraction. They pass prominent producers Young Kros and "Tonight’s" remix producer Marvelous J who is seen talking to a beautiful patron of the club, forgets she is there watching Tasha. In between the party scenes Emcee N.I.C.E. and Suhana Machete perform together. The party shifts back to the bus this time joined by producer Marvelous J. At the 3-minute 48-second mark the song switches from the original version of the song, to the remix version as the night comes to an end.

Critical Review

It was thought that Emcee N.I.C.E. would not recover as an independent artist given the major blow back that was received when Stacey Dash (Actress, Fox News Correspondent) who was featured on his first single release Life of the Party (Emcee N.I.C.E. song) ran into a national firestorm over Mitt Romney as her political choice. However the record debut proved that the backlash was over as he entered the Billboard Charts.
