A video was also shot for "Been It", with amateur footage showing Timberlake recording his portion of the music video whilst on The 20/20 Experience World Tour and Timbaland recording his portion on a beach with skantly clad models. The lyrics to the song seem to have remained unchanged, however the lyric "...so many hoes" has been changed to "...so many pros" which is the title of the track itself.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Timbaland Passion: Snoop Dogg Gets Timbaland's 2013 Single 'Been It' As 'So Many Pros' Produced By The Neptunes )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bush (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
