The music video, filmed in New York City, shows Baby Bash and Frankie J in a car stuck in traffic, Frankie J turns on the video screen in Bash’s Escalade. A delivery woman (Jessica Sutta) in a low-cut shirt walks up, catching Bash and J's attention. She smiles at Bash and J as she walks by while the two sit on a porch with other men playing instruments. Bash and J watch the events in their car while jamming. Sitting on the porch, Bash and J throw peace signs to two other ladies who walk by. The neighbor girl upstairs throws down a flower to J, he smiles and throws a peace sign. A telephone repair woman dancing credited as the Call Girl catches the eye of Bash, and he dances with the Call Girl. A policewoman holding a stop sign, lets two women wearing low-cut school uniforms cross the road, all three then proceed to flirt with Bash and J. Bash pretends to paddle the policewoman with her stop sign. On Groovy Way, an ice cream woman dances with Bash. Bash walks the street dancing with other women and then dances with a female DJ. At a lounge, Bash, J, and other women dance. After watching the events in their car, it is shown Bash and J are escorting three women, who are in the back seat.
