When the full video appeared on Yahoo as well as Universal Music account the movie clips were no longer present and the audio was from Iglesias's album version with Lil Wayne. Short clips were also shown during Iglesias's appearance on Regis and Kelly and Rachael Ray which featured clips of the movie and the audio was of the soundtrack version. The music video was directed by Billy Woodruff and features both Iglesias and the Step Up 2 the Streets main actors Robert Hoffman and Briana Evigan reprising their roles in an underground club setting.Ī preview of the video was put on Channing Tatum's Youtube channel. The original version which features Wayne features on some foreign versions of Iglesias's Greatest Hits as well as being a bonus track on the digital release of the Greatest Hits on US Itunes. It has also aired on some foreign television channels. The video has so far only been aired on the channel Mun2 on a week dedicated to iglesias. With ties to movie cut they could once again use Lil Wayne's vocals despite him not being in the original video. The music video did eventually premiere on Yahoo! Music on February 29 with an addition. The song was also removed from the list of official singles from the Step Up 2 the Streets soundtrack suggesting the song was to longer be a single. The song and video was supposed to go for adds on Radio and premiere on MTV on the February the 14th but this did not happen. The song's video was rejected by MTV due to its explicitness with the music station asking for a less gratutitous re-edit. The song debuted on Billboard's Pop 100 chart at 86. The same week Iglesias performed the song on Regis and Kelly and The Tonight Show promoting the Step Up 2 the Streets Soundtrack. Iglesias debuted the version of the song with Prophet on Ryan Seacrest's radio show on KIIS-FM on the 6th of February. It was both these versions that were to released to as singles. A limited release of the album did however feature a San Francisco-based rapper called Prophet. The version that appears on the film soundtrack did not feature Lil Wayne but rather Iglesias on his own. The song was added to the soundtrack to the movie Step Up 2 the Streets. The song was officially confirmed as the third US single on both Iglesias's website and his myspace page.
The song has once again been added to Iglesias Myspace page. A list of the eleven radio stations were the song has been added appeared on both Iglesias's official website as well as his Myspace. Shortly after Iglesias's management decided to test the song on a number of radio stations throughout the US. A poll on Iglesias's Myspace had "Push" come second place to his 2001 hit "Hero" in a list of songs to be added to the music player. Despite it not being an official remix it was mistakenly viewed as such by magazines such as Blender and received much exposure throughout the internet.
The full version of Lil Wayne's rap was used in a remix of Britney Spears's song " Gimme More". The choice proved confusing to many who observed that positive write ups from people on music forums, music Blogs, YouTube posts and majority on his official message board stated they'd rather have "Push". The song proved to be a favorite among fans who thought the song would be a good single in increasingly R&B and Hip Hop dominated music market. The decision to not release the track met with some mixed reactions from fans. During a phone interview with KRQQ in Tucson, Arizona Iglesias stated that " Somebody's Me" would be the second US single from Insomniac.
The singer stated that either "Push" or "Somebody's Me" would be the next single for the US and that he and his management would be looking throughout the Internet to choose which would be the better choice. The first signs that the song would not be released came during an appearance by Iglesias on MTV's Total Request Live. Two different versions of the song leaked onto the internet, an instrumental and an acapella version that featured an extended rap from Lil Wayne. The song was put on Iglesias's official Myspace, was sent to several clubs and was played during a broadcast on KTLA. The song was originally intended to be the second single from the album Insomniac, several articles about the album cited it as the second single and was confirmed by Iglesias in several interviews.
