Music video

An accompanying music video was released featuring Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell as Ed and Dexter Reed from the Good Burger movie as well as clips from the movie being shown. The video starts with the members of 702 pulling up to the Good Burger restaurant where they see a "Help Wanted" sign, and applying for a job by saying the restaurant's slogan. The group is seen sitting in a diner booth, dancing alongside Ed and Dexter, posing inside telephone booths, and later singing in the kitchen with vintage microphones.

The music video was serviced to BET and The Box on the week ending July 13, 1997.[4]
