"Displeased with the few existing films on harassment, most significantly the girls wanted their video to address street harassment in an unusual way. Ikeda brought in numerous professionals: the directors, The Daniels, of Lil Jon and DJ Snake’s hit “Turn Down for What?” were excited and supportive of the girls’ efforts; Hollis, the Seattle-based singer-songwriter best known for her collaboration on Macklemore’s “White Walls” song, heard about the music video and contributed vocals to the project; and the artist Yazmin Monet Watkins rehearsed the girls to get loud and expressive in front of the camera. Ikeda brought one hundred stuffed animal cats to make the girls’ vision come alive."
