Music Video

The music video for "Keep It Movin'" was released on the internet August 8, 2007. The video starts with Hip-Hop Keke waiting for the subway train to arrive. Performance scenes are shown in between then. Cool/Laid Back Keke is on the train and sings with the chorus. Then the train stops to pick up Hip-hop Keke who sings the first verse. The next chorus is shown with both Cool/Laid Back Keke and Hip-Hop Keke dancing to a routine in the streets. Then near the end of the chorus the subway stops and Cool/Laid Back Keke and Hip-hop Keke meet Skater Keke, who sings the second verse. Then the third chorus is Cool/Laid Back, Skater, and Hip-Hop Keke dancing in the streets at a block party.

Big Meech does his verse with all three versions of Keke dancing with him. Throughout the video Glamorous Keke is dancing and singing with a bright amaranth pink colored backdrop.

Trivia

*The video was directed by DownSyndrome.

*The video was featured as a new joint on 106 & Park September 19, 2007. It premiered on the Disney Channel as a revamped version (taking out the "summer" references and replacing them with "weekend) on November 2, 2007.

*Also the revamped Disney version replaced most of the lyrics.

*The video has gotten over 1,678,124 views on YouTube. [ [http://youtube.com/watch?v=DrkbP-DpKJw YouTube - Broadcast Yourself ] ]

Censorship

In the second verse: "Got 106 & Park on...," "106 & Park" has been removed on subsequent MTV owned stations so not to advertise a non-MTV program.

Disney Channel also edits out the line "Woke up in the morning and I see the sunshine, only got the summertime on my mind...," to "Woke up in the morning and I'm feeling all right, only got the weekend on my mind...," with a seemingly higher voice, possibly to make it sound more kid-friendly. It also completely removes Big Meech's rap.

The radio edit in the music video removes Big Meech's intro rap, but keeps his other rap. Also, a second remix features Slim Thug & Paul Wall.

The song reached #12 on the Radio Disney Top 30.
