[edit] Music video
The video begins with the girls' father forbidding them to party, have boys over or stay up late while their parents are out of town. After he leaves, Farrah turns to the camera and says: "Y'all know it's on, right?". The girls then begin a dance routine in front of a sliver background spliced with a wild party being hosted at their house. The next day the parents return to find the party mess, and a boy wandering round the house, leaving the girls sighing at being caught.
The video was shot in Atlanta, Georgia. It was directed by Benny Boom, who is famous for directing videos for P. Diddy, Nas, Nelly, Kelly Rowland of Destiny's Child, Keyshia Cole, Lil' Kim, LL Cool J, Pussycat Dolls, Mýa and many others. J-Nicks, Jazze Pha, & D-Roc of the Ying Yang Twins made cameo appearances.
