"Humpin' Around" is a song by American singer Bobby Brown. It spent two weeks at number one on the U.S. R&B chart and reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100.[3] It is rumored that the song was originally titled "F*ckin' Around", with the name later changed to make it more radio friendly, and to avoid potential censorship.

Music video

The music video features Brown dancing outside with women in cages, with cut scenes of a girl trying to break in to his phone and personal belongings to find his mistress in NYC.

A second video was shot primarily outside for the Dance Remix, along with random shots and outtakes from the original video.
