Music video
s in the "We Know Something You Don't Know" video
The music video, directed by Ruben Fleischer, features five dancers cavorting around downtown Los Angeles and b-boying in cartoonish animal costumes.
Influence
The breakdancing animals became a bit of an internet phenomenon, spreading mostly through short animated gifsdespite the fact that few knew where they came from or the song they were associated with. In particular, a breakdancing sequence involving the dancer in the bear suit was parodied and redrawn many times with different characters in his place.Trivia
*The animal costumes from this video were later used in a video for another DJ Format track, "The Hit Song." The song uses the line "more hits than Germans surfing fetish websites," as the camera pans out on a website depicting two men in 2na's Shark costume.*The shark costume was used yet again in the video for the DJ Format song "Vicious Battle Raps." An unknown person wearing the costume can be seen dancing in the background towards the end of the video. The same costume, in a gray color, is used by Steveston-London Secondary School as their mascot.
