Transcription

Composition

The track features a distinct Moroccan Chaabi string sample from Najat Aatabou's song "Hadi Kedba Bayna (Obvious lie)".[6][7] The main hook of the song is in 6
4 time signature, while the rest is in 4
4. The track also features rapping by Q-Tip (member of A Tribe Called Quest). In part of the song, a sample from the group's early single "Leave Home" plays.

Critical reception

Pitchfork Media's Scott Plagenhoef stated the song along with "The Boxer" "harks back to the duo's early B-Boy/techno days" but missed "the ferocity and sub-bass rattlings of their earlier cousins, and here play second fiddle to unremarkable verses and nasally vocals."[8]

It won the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording in February 2006.[9]

Music video

The music video was filmed in Málaga, Spain, and directed by Adam Smith. It involves three North African boys wearing clown face paint, who head into a club named Lyceo during a krump dance battle. The name of one of these boys is Bilal according to his father's line at the beginning (بِلالْ! اطفأ النورْ ونامْ, literally "Bilal! Turn off the light and go to sleep."). One of the boys starts dancing in the battle, but they are caught and taken away by the police afterwards. Except for the scenes in the club, the entire video is shot in black-and-white.
