Music video

The music video for "I Do (Wanna Get Close to You)" was directed by Chris Applebaum and it shows the girls, hitting "the club in search of good time".[3] The videos setting is based in a "futuristic pod-like venue in the middle of the ocean where they come across Loon — who raps on the track".[3] Rap group Naughty by Nature and rapper/actor Nick Cannon both make cameo appearances in the video.[3] By June 2002, the video was in post-production and was released in July.[3]
