The music video for "U Got It Bad" was directed by Little X, who later also directed Usher's smash hit Yeah!. TLC's Chilli played the female lead, sparking rumors of a real life relationship between the two.
The video starts with Usher tossing and turning in bed, troubled by the thought of his ex-girlfriend. After awakening, he turns on the TV, only to see his ex on every station. The video proceeds to introduce flashbacks of happier times between the two, suggesting that he still longs for his ex. In his desperation to find her, he braves the rain, bursting into her trailer to apologize to and reconcile with her. However, this is revealed to be his imagination, and instead of opening the door of the trailer, he walks away ashamed. Disgusted, he makes his way home and lays in his bed, alone.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it.”
—Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
