[edit] Music video
The music video for "What's Your Flava?" is a parody of the movie Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. The video sees Craig offering a chance for four girls to win a tour around his music factory if they find golden CDs hidden inside his new album Slicker Than Your Average. Then, three girls are eliminated one by one because, as with the movie, they act up during the tour. One girl remains and leaves with Craig via a glass elevator exiting the factory, similar to the ending of the movie.
