Music video The video for "Boom Boom Boogie" begins with Snow visiting a fortune teller who recounts Snow's "former life" as a prohibition era gangster. Snow is featured performing at various clubs gambling, playing pool, and performing on stage. At the end of the video, Snow leaves the fortune teller's shop and jumps into a convertible with his friends. Reception Larry Flick of Billboard wrote,"for the past few years, Snow has been working hard to strengthen his skills and credibility as a reggae toaster. He reveals a high degree of progress on this single which boldly blends pure Jamaican rhythms with dance/funk keyboards. His vocal style is now a hybrid of soul crooning and raunchy chatting, ripping through the baseline with palpable confidence."
