Just watch any Jay Z, Ja Rule, 50 cent, The Game, etc. video and copy it.

Key elements: Girls, Cars, & Money
 
maybe you would get a more informative response if you asked a more specific question. try a little research and planning, then reapproach the question. good luck with the music video. liked the song.
 
I picture an inflatable doll. Yeah, probably not helpful, I just want to see a video with an inflatable doll. :evil:

I agree with DJQuikFingaz. Watch a lot of videos in the rap video genre. You can choose to go with what's been done, or go in an opposite direction.

It really comes down to the client and what their expectations are. Do they want you to make a standard rap video with lots of bling, chicks, and cars? Or are they giving you freedom to come up with something innovative that plays against type. Until you know the answer to that question my suggestions don't really matter.
 
Get together with your posse and brainstorm a bunch of ideas. Nothing is too silly. The people who wrote and performed it should have some idea of the kind of images they think the song evokes. Then get some costumes for the girls and go shoot them. Then see how it cuts together. It's a mystery but it works. I would suggest you don't go out in a corn field, they only do that in the midwest. And mountain skiing scenes are probably out too. But if you have someone who will donate a yacht for a day, or a beach house with a pool, that would be a fun place to shoot and make it easier to get hot women in bikinis too. Its about having fun shooting it, not about some mystical "great idea".
