Background
At the beginning of the song, a man says in Japanese: "Kore kara minna de mechakucha odotte. Sawagou, sawagou". Translated into English, it means: "Everyone start dancing together wildly now. Let's make some noise, let's make some noise." Before the second chorus (after Missy says "Let me show you some") another man is heard saying in Hindi: "Aaj mujh ko," which translates as, "Today, to me," or, "Hurry to me". The outro of the song features the Japanese man saying "Ichi ni san shi", translating to "One, two, three, four."
This tune was also utilized in Bubba Sparxx's debut single "Ugly", in which Elliott makes a cameo in the video.
Rappers Ludacris, LL Cool J, Ja Rule, Eve and singer Nicole Wray also make an appearance.
