    This song came out 2004 and the reason I know that because I was a huge Detroit Pistons fan and these guys are from Detroit and I first saw this video right before the 2004 NBA finals the year the Pistons beat the Lakers .. I remember watching this video telling my friend since Miss Detroit won the crown in this video that only means that the Pistons is going to win the NBA finals against the Lakers and remind you the Lakers had a All-Star team even though Karl Malone was close to retirement , they had Gary Payton, Shaq and Kobe but my friend looked at me like I was crazy he told me that the Lakers was going to sweep the Detroit Pistons but we all know how that went down Pistons won the series 4 to 1 and shocked the world in 2004 NBA finals
