“Double Dutch Bus” has been used in a variety of hip-hop tracks and hip-hop, such as Snoop Dogg’s “Snoop Dogg (What’s My Name Part. 2.)” along with Missy Elliott’s “Gossip Folks”. Both albums were made by Timbaland. Smith’s track “Double Dutch Bus” is included in 2008’s Disney film College Road Trip, starring Martin Lawrence and Raven-Symone.
