Trivia

*The song is heard in and credited in the movie Higher Learning, although does not appear on the soundtrack (the song "Year of tha Boomerang" does appear on the soundtrack).
*The song also makes a reference to Jacqueline Onassis during the song when Zack whispers the line, "I wanna be Jackie Onassis. I wanna wear a pair of dark sunglasses. I wanna be Jackie O. Oh, oh, oh please don't die!" The reason why he says this is unclear.
