Music video

The music video features Flo Rida and Robin Thicke but not Verdine White. The video, directed by Director X, is set on row of brownstones in Jersey City during a block party on a Summer day. In the video, Flo Rida and Thicke casually flirt with women passing by; ice cream is distributed to the neighborhood and children play in the spraying water of an open fire hydrant.^[3][4] The video ends with Flo-Rida, Thicke and party-goers dancing together in the street into the night.^[4][5][6]
