Music video

The music video is an imitation of the 1998 film "Blade", but tributes Batman and Michael Jackson's Thriller. The single was released to AOL Music on May 21 2007. There are two remixes: one features rapper Jadakiss the other is a dancehall remix featuring Elephant Man. It has yet to be digitally released in the United States.

Accessed August 62007.] It features Chris being bitten on the neck by an attractive female vampire, who appears in his car. He then follows her to some form of castle/hideout where he performs a dance routine and during the bridge floats upwards towards the ceiling, only to fall back down when the light he is floating towards, goes out. The video ends with Chris on top of hill overlooking his car, implying it was a fantasy of some kind. But as he gets into the car, he see the female vampire appear next to him, making the `fantasy` real. Sean Garrett has a small cameo at the end.
