[edit] Music Video

"No More (Baby I'ma Do Right)" was 3LW's first music video. It was shot in late 2000 by director Chris Robinson. It received a fair amount of video play on TV channels such as BET and MTV and enjoyed some success on BET's Top Ten Video Countdown, 106 & Park and MTV's TRL. The video debuted on MTV's Top Ten Video countdown, TRL on January 12, 2001 at #10 and stayed on the countdown for 27 days and peaked at #2. It fell off the countdown on March 7, 2001. To date, the video occasionally gets spinned on MTV Jams and MTV Hits.The girls look much younger in this video compared to their next video, Playas Gon' Play and their other videos to date. In the beginning of the video, the girls are cruising around in a car in the city and Naturi is driving. Kiely tells Naturi to pull over near the subway because she sees her boyfriend walking down the subway stairs with another girl. Kiely then gets out of the car and is walking towards them, but her boyfriend did not notice her as he and his new girl were walking down the subway stairs. Naturi and Adrienne soon follow after her because she is crushed that she saw her boyfriend with another girl. The girls are them seem singing and standing in front of a black picket fence where some city apartments are located. In the following scenes of the video, the girls are still riding in the car and they are going to Kiely's apartment. She rushes into the apartment and gets a stuffed teddy bear that she got from her boyfriend and throws it into the sidewalk trash can and gets back into the car with the girls. Kiely's boyfriend is then seen with his new girl friend walking down the sidewalk. Kiely them throws a red and white jacket that she got from her boyfriend out the car window while Adrienne is driving. A guy is them seem spray painting a picture of 3LW on the street, and then the girls magically transform to real life on the street and start doing a dance performance. Then scenes are shown of the girls with their boyfriends near a basket ball court and how they were remininscing on the good ol' days. Then it breaks into Kiely's rap performance and the girls are all seen doing another dance performance, and this time with background dancers. Then Kiely's boyfriend and his new girl are seen walking out of an arcade. Then Kiely and the girls are near a street with friends and Kiely sees her boyfriend and his new girl walking down the overhead road stairs and he sees Kiely leaning against the car and tryies to talk to her, but she pushes him away because he lied to her. The video then fades as the girls are standing in front of the black picket fence.
