[edit] Music video

The Black Eyed Peas in the psychedelic limbo from the music video.

The music video features 3 main locations, the first shown being a psychedelic limbo, where the BEP does breakdancing and the main verse of the song is sung. (Hey Mama, this that beat that make you move, mama). The color scheme is mostly yellow, red, brown and creamish-white. The second is the vertically-black-and-white striped canvas-room. A few parts are sung in here, but the main one is the one featuring Fergie. The third one is the club dance scene, which has lots of background characters dancing. The music video features the edited version of the song. ("We drop bombs like we in the middle east" has been excluded)
