"Humpin' Around" is the title of a number-one R&B single by singer Bobby Brown. The hit song spent two weeks at number one on the U.S. R&B chart and reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100.[3] The song's chorus samples the guitar riff in Led Zeppelin's 1973 song "Dancing Days".[4][5]
Music video
The music video features Brown dancing in a heavy metal nightclub with women in cages, with cutscenes of his supposed girlfriend trying to break in to his phone and personal belongings to find his mistresses in NYC.
A second video was shot primarily outside for the Dance Remix, along with random shots and outtakes from the original video.
