"Sugar" is a song by German DJ and producer Robin Schulz featuring vocals from Canadian recording artist Francesco Yates. The song was released in Germany on July 17, 2015, and samples Baby Bash's 2003 single "Suga Suga".[1][2]

Music video

The music video for this song was released onto YouTube on 24 July 2015 and runs for a total length of three minutes and forty-three seconds.[3] Yates is seen in the video along with a rogue police officer who gyrates and grooves to the tune of the song while driving, starred by comedian Nathan Barnatt. Schulz also appears on a billboard for a concert. In the end, references are made to the music video of Baby Bash's Suga Suga when the police officer dresses in the clothes that match those of Baby Bash in that video: a green t-shirt over a white t-shirt, baggy jeans, a chain and a white beanie. At the end of the video, his car meets an accident and tumbles upside down, albeit still leaving the officer dancing as additional police cars arrive at the scene.
