[edit] Music video

The music video for "Dip It Low" was directed by Matthew Rolston. Milian is first seen sitting in a small, Asian-decorated area, being very scantily-clad. She is solely wearing a bra and underwear with a robe and high heels. She dances and sings, and clips of her dressed in a sparkling green costume cut in throughout the video. She is seen in a revealing red dress, walking forward on a stage with two dancers and then begins to dance. One of the male dancers then pulls back the front of the dress, revealing a black dress underneath. Throughout the rest of the video she is shown being pulled through black paint in the black dress and continues to dance. The verse that features Fabolous' is completely cut out in the video, and instead a dance sequence is shown.

A remix of the song, featuring rapper, Shawnna, also had a music video. The video is basically the same, only with separate footage of Shawnna the verses she contributes to the song. A reggaeton remix of the song featuring Puerto Rican rapper Voltio exists, and an exclusive Asian remix featuring Wilber Pan was shown on Channel V as a music video.
