Music video
The music video for the song was directed by Adam Powell and Kwasi Danquah III, and was uploaded to Stryder's YouTube channel on Wednesday, 17 November 2010, at a total length of three minutes and forty-two seconds. The video is set in black and white scenes and finds Stryder chopping out his rhymes over big synths and big beats in an empty, dusty warehouse cut with scenes from Battersea Power Station and a ships control room for an added cinematic touch. Bridget Kelly makes her music video debut, where she unleashes powerful coloratura soprano vocals.[http://www.promonews.tv/2010/11/22/tinchy-stryders-take-the-world-featuring-bridget-kelly-by-adam-powell/ Tinchy Stryders Take The World featuring Bridget Kelly by Adam Powell]. www.promonews.tv.
