Music video

edit

The music video was directed by Disturbing Tha Peace CEO Chaka Zulu.[1] It begins with Tity Boi (aka 2 Chainz) getting up from bed for breakfast. He gets dressed and rides in a Lamborghini Gallardo, in which he picks up Lil Wayne, handing him a duffle bag. They then head to a concert. Meanwhile, Dolla Boy sells some CDs to a boy in exchange for a duffle bag, then receives a text message to meet Tity Boi and Lil Wayne. At the end of the video, all three of them are seen performing together.

Remix versions

edit

The official remix features rappers Birdman, Juelz Santana and a new verse from Lil Wayne (who only sang the song's chorus in the original version). At the 2007 BET Hip Hop Awards, Playaz Circle and Lil Wayne performed the song with a new guest verse from fellow rapper and DTP label-boss Ludacris.

Miami-based rapper Lil' Brianna, released a freestyle over the song's instrumental for her 2007 mixtape, Princess of Miami. UK rapper Kano, released a freestyle over the song's instrumental for his MC No. 1 mixtape. Other remixes include the Travis Barker and Sean P remixes. American rappers Rick Ross and Young Jeezy also have their own respective remixes.[citation needed]
