[edit] Chart Performance
Despite high expectations, "Coffee Shop" was a major disappointment for Yung Joc and the label. It didn't even debut on the US Hot 100, until "Hustlenomics" was released, in which it debuted at #78, before dropping out the very next week.

[edit] Video
The video premiered on BET's Access Granted on June 20, 2007.
In the video, Yung Joc plays four different roles; as himself, as a fat man who works at the shop, a dwarf who works at the shop, and as a bald old man who also works at the shop. Gorilla Zoe's verse in the video is not the same as his verse in the single, and the video ends after Joc says, "Hey kids, please don't do drugs," rather than continuing into "Give them to me and I'll get rid of them at the Coffee Shop" as it does in the single.
Jody Breeze, Trae, Lloyd, Rick Ross, DJ Drama and Eightball & MJG all make cameo appearances in the video.
