Fergie is back and hosting the lavish Gatsby-themed parties in the clip for "A Little Party Never Killed Nobody (All We Got)," her Q-Tip and GoonRock collaboration featured on the soundtrack to the 2013 film "The Great Gatsby," about American opulence, an adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel of the same name, released through Interscope Records. She may be very much pregnant nowadays, but that did not keep the Black Eyed Peas member from filming a music video, her contribution to the Jay-Z executive-helmed "The Great Gatsby" soundtrack album and only song to play for your Gatsby viewing parties.
The raucous anthem "A Little Party Never Killed Nobody (All We Got)," is an uptempo electro-pop, and swing-flavored hip-hop song, which references the viewing parties held by Gatsby from the novel. There are party fiends, and then there's Jay Gatsby. In "A Little Party Never Killed Nobody (All We Got)," Fergie, Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest and producer GoonRock demonstrate their willingness to keep up. Swinging sax licks boogie with Fergie's jazzed up vocals before GoonRock's synths storm through. Q-Tip later drops in a fun-loving guest verse to keep the energy levels pulsing. "I have a stout reputation of keeping it hot," he rhymes.
Fergie goes back to the Roaring Twenties with a Big Band vibe. That same feeling is carried out through the song's video which finds Fergie linking up with Q-Tip and GoonRock for some retro styled fun. Though (a pregnant) Fergie is dressed as a flapper throughout, her collaboration with Q-Tip and GoonRock doesn’t take listeners all the way back in time, thanks to some thumping EDM beats. The concept for the clip, as the Black Eyed Peas star explained in a behind the scenes interview is, "hosting the ultimate party," depicted through a 1920s-themed event at the Emerson theatre in Hollywood.
Director Fatima Robinson just creatively made sure to hide the 38-year-old mom-to-be's baby bump in the three-and-a-half-minute visuals. As the preggy Fergie is seen getting her all make up and wear on for a night of partying before pulling up at the front of the venue. She then first retreats to a comfortable sofa surrounded by dapper-looking men in black tuxedos and bow ties before she takes over the stage, dazzles in several ensembles and the non-stop dancing ensues, the crowded dance floor filled with partygoers swaying to the electro-pop beats of the Goonrock-produced track.
