Rapper Macklemore would later sample "Independent" on his #1 hit, "Can't Hold Us".

The music video features Webbie performing in a room with three screens, each of which showcases a classroom filled with young women actively watching a news report covering a presidential press conference on the dire state of the war.

After assuming her position, she proclaims her plans towards peace in the Middle East to the class' applause.

The video closes with a screen that displays a dedication to Pimp C. A remix features Diamond & Princess of Crime Mob.
