It also reached #3 on the Hot Rap Tracks chart[2] and #3 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart.[3]

Puerto Rican reggaeton duo Maicol & Manuel sampled the song on "Hoy Me Levanté" on their 2002 release Yakaleo.

The song is also featured in episode 2 of series one of British teen comedy/drama Skins. The song was also used by World Wrestling Entertainment superstar Montel Vontavious Porter during his short stint in Ring of Honor. It was also used for April Hunter in various Independent circuits. It was featured in the movie ATL starring T.I., and Hancock, although in the latter, the clean version was used. A snippet of the song is played during traffic reports on many radio stations, usually carrying an urban/hip-hop format. Retired NBA star and now ESPN analyst Jalen Rose is featured in the music video.

The song has been covered by rock band Start Trouble, on their album Every Solution Has Its Problem.

It was featured on British sitcom The Inbetweeners when the characters Jay and Neil took Will on a 'pussy patrol' in Jay's red Nissan Micra.

It was sampled by Girl Talk on the first track of his album All Day, "Oh No".
