"Rock Yo Hips" is a song by American Southern hip hop sextet Crime Mob featuring Lil Scrappy. It was recorded at PatchWerk Recording Studios in Atlanta and released on August 29, 2006 via BME Recordings/Reprise Records[1] as the lead single from the group's second studio album Hated on Mostly. Production was handled by Crime Mob member Lil' Jay. The single peaked at number 30 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

The music video directed by Dr. Teeth premiered on BET.com on November 7, 2006. The style of the video is inspired by Historically black colleges and universities, such as Morehouse College and Spelman College, and featured African-American fraternities such as Phi Beta Sigma, Omega Psi Phi, Alpha Phi Alpha and Kappa Alpha Psi.[citation needed]

The official remix features fellow rappers Young Dro and Rasheeda and new verses from the group.
