Music video

Inspired by the musical number \"You're the One that I Want\" from the 1978 musical film Grease, the music video begins with Irv Gotti a group of men dressed in black discussing their connections in Los Angeles, California and Houston, Texas (a reference to Murder Inc.'s affiliation with Death Row Records and Rap-A-Lot Records) and their plan for a revolution in a strategy room. Ja Rule enters dressed in a preppy sweater, greatly surprising the other men, and explains that his girl wants him to forsake the street life. Meanwhile, some of Ashanti's friends are having a slumber party (with the Ashanti album cut \"Movies\" playing in the background) and playing Scrabble when Ashanti emerges dressed in flashy black leather attire, explaining that her guy wants her to be more street.\n

The song begins with the two meeting up at an amusement fair. As they sing, they partake in various carnival attractions, such as game booths and bumper cars. The song ends abruptly with Ja Rule's friends emerging from a black van and asking him if he's riding with them. After he hesitates and turns to Ashanti, she accepts. They enter the van and after a few quick cuts they emerge and Ja Rule begins rapping \"Destiny\", the closing track from the album. The video ends with a crowd of men marching the streets and holding up various signs, including tributes to late rappers Tupac Shakur and DJ Jam-Master Jay.\n

The street scene was filmed outside Cathedral High School on Bishops Road (formerly Stadium Way), an up-hill climb towards Dodger Stadium. The carnival scenes were filmed in Los Angeles at Cathedral High School's graveyard field. The entire campus was the site of the old Calvary Cemetery, northeast of downtown Los Angeles.\n
