According to a Sony Music representative, the video "explores the two sides of Jessica...The 'down' side of things will feature Jessica preparing for her shows and being the natural girl she is, whereas the 'up' will feature the showgirl in Jessica on stage, displaying her coming of age and edginess, the sexy entertainer within."[citation needed]
