Songfacts®:

  • This promotional single from the Dirty Bass Album Re-Pack was inspired by President Obama's For All/Forward campaign, which is aimed at encouraging the country to vote. Said FEM's Kev Nish: "We wanted to create an anthem around the inspirational ideals that people around the world are entitled to, no matter your race, religion, sexual preference, political or social views. We use the crowd at our concerts as the example. When you're at a show experiencing live music, no matter who you're next to, you're experiencing that magic together."
  • Amongst the celebrities who have cameos in the video are Emmanuelle Chriqui, A$AP Rocky, Snoop Lion, Scarlett Johansson, Russell Simmons, Tatyana Ali, Angela Simmons, Tyson Beckford, Kal Penn, Jared Leto, Jessica Alba, Don Cheadle, Kev Jumba, Common, Jeezy, George Lopez and Josh Lucas.
