Lil Mama Promotes Condoms & Breakfast In Feel-Good Video for 'Sausage'
EntertainmentThe message on “Sausage” is simple: “You better use a condom if you taking that sausage.” As an anthem, it’s both considerably catchy and easily clownable, and the video’s feel-good, oft ridiculous scenes are something only Lil Mama could pull off, on top of the fact that she’s rapping about safe sex over a throwback scratch beat that samples a medley of classics, including Pete Rock/Isaac Hayes’ “Walk on By” and Lil’ Vicious and Doug E. Fresh’s “Freak,” while also tipping a hat to artists like Method Man and Mary J. Blige.
The video starts with Lil Mama exiting a brownstone, immediately feeling herself and catching dance fever. Surrounded by her peoples, she stops to Harlem Shake with a kid who’s feeling it.
Lil Mama then walks down the street spreading her important PSA and her love of dance. Lil Mama hops in a lime green whip and gets the whole neighborhood rapping about sausage and safe sex.
