The video for Whats It Gonna Be? (1999) by Busta Rhymes and Janet Jackson (both USA), directed by Hype Williams, cost $2.4 million (£1.44 million) to produce.
Computer-morphing effects accounted for much of this expenditure. The track was taken from Rhymes' millennium-themed album E.L.E. — The Final World Front.
The video was inspired by the Terminator movies.
It contains highly special effects of liquid turning into Busta and molding into different things. The colors are mainly silver and purple. Janet is wearing a very tight and long purple dominatrix outfit covered with metal rings and adorning very long hair and long finger nails, each pierced at the tip with a hoop.
The video is sexually charged and very original.
