"White Tee" is a 2004 song by Dem Franchize Boyz, which appeared on their debut album Dem Franchize Boyz, released on So So Def Records and Universal Records.
[edit] Controversy
An article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, which mentions the song, and the fashion statement, stated that after the release of the song, many clubs and school began to ban the use of white t-shirts on the basis that the shirts were associated with gangs.[1]
[edit] Music video
The video for the song begins with a faux news report by "Robert Watson" from Atlanta, who is holding a microphone with "DFB" on it. He is talking about waiting from a call from the governor, when his phone rings. He then tells the camera that he "just saved a bunch of money on wardrobe by switching to White Tee's", in reference to Geico commercials.[citation needed] The video then progresses into the song, where everyone is shown wearing white t-shirts as they perform numerous activities such as riding "quads", dancing on cars, skateboarding and riding bikes.[2]
The official remix features So So Def labelmates Jermaine Dupri & The Kid Slim, the remix is the last track (hidden track) off the group's next album, On Top of Our Game.
