"In My Bed" is a song by American R&B group Dru Hill. It is the second single from their eponymous debut album. The remix was released in 1997 and features both Jermaine Dupri (who also produced the track) and Da Brat.[1] The remix sampled Le Pamplemousse's "Gimme What You Got" (1976).

The single spent three weeks at number-one on the US R&B chart and peaked at number four on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song is performed by group leader Mark "Sisqó" Andrews. The song appears in 2008 video game Grand Theft Auto IV.

Music video

The original music video was directed by Bille Woodruff. The So So Def music video remix was released in May 1997 and was directed by Darren Grant.[2] The music video focuses on Sisqó's girlfriend, who possibly cheats on him with another man, but Sisqó doesn't know anything about it. At the end of the video, Sisqó goes to his house with a bouquet of flowers for his girlfriend when he sees a guy walking out. He goes inside and sadly finds her in bed with a woman and drops the flowers in heartbreak. He leaves the house for a few seconds and goes back in.
