[edit] Music video
The music video, featuring Drew Carey, a Bill Gates look-alike, and Emo Philips as the object of ridicule, is a parody of several rap videos, and since it is about computers, takes place mostly in an office. The live concert scenes feature a large COMDEX sign and the crowd consists of office workers. Phil LaMarr makes a cameo in the video. The fluorescent-lit tunnel and the outfits Yankovic and Drew Carey wear are roughly based on the performances of Mase and Sean "P. Diddy" Combs in the music video for the Notorious B.I.G.'s song "Mo Money Mo Problems". The scenes within the gymnasium parody the music video for "It's All about the Benjamins (Rock Remix)".[citation needed]
