Appearance of the Dancer[]
The dancer is a man named Caldwell, who wears Charleston-themed clothing. He wears an aquamarine fedora over short black hair, along with a tuxedo with an orange highlight on its right arm and a golden piece on the left part of its collar, an orange shirt with a black tie and a golden collar, blue pants, a black belt, orange socks, and black shoes with aquamarine highlights. His most notable feature is his black cane which he performs with throughout the entire routine. He also wears a vivid yellow glove, specifically deep ripe lemon. He has an orange outline.
Background[]
The background draws inspiration from The Great Gatsby. It has an Art Deco theme with golden embellishments, with black for the background's color.
During the intro, the background is shown to feature a layered rhombus with black segments on the outermost layer, with black intrinsic parts in the inner layers. The center of the rhombus contains a black square with a wheel-shaped shape with white circles on the outer ring and a dollar sign in the center. The rhombus emits faint outlines over it, while the layers and segments rotate in certain moves. Stiff geometric outlines are shown in the background, with the vertical lines emitting triangular Art Deco-motif patterns appearing in golden light. As the song transitions to the first chorus, the shape slowly opens to send the coach in.
During the choruses, the background turns into a black and dark gray Art Deco pattern to feature a spinning wheel in the center, with numerous inner segments flashing metallic gold colors in sync of the beat. The layers are shown to either have white circular lights in a thin ring, a thick ring stubbed with small rhombuses and circles, and an innermost ring and segment that is filled with golden dots and white circular lights, with the center covered by a white semi-opaque glass that shows an eight-pointed golden segmented star in the center. Each of the segments are shown rotating in either clockwise or counterclockwise direction. In the subsequent appearance, additional golden outlines of arrows appear by the sides of the circle, along with more visible pulse lines and the triangular Art Deco-motif patterns appearing inside the of the arrows.
During the dance breaks, second verse, and Q-Tip's verse, the background changes into another alteration of the chorus background, featuring a more simplistic and slightly golden Art Deco-style rhombus pattern that faintly emits golden colors. In the center of the background is a large black spinning circle that has golden rims and white circular flashing lights, with the center being a spinning hexagon made of black outer layer with small golden squares, an midsection made of gold, a thick and black inner mid-section, and the innermost section and the center being a golden segmented hexagon. The circle also emits pulse lines in gold colors. Other golden stylistic edge designs and shapes are featured in the sides of the background. The background also has a faint glitchy effect throughout its appearance.
In the second verse and Q-Tip's verse, the circle transforms into a tunnel with black segmented "walls" that feature white circular lights, where it would slowly retract back in the second verse or remain there for the duration of Q-Tip's verse.
During the post-chorus by Q-Tip, the background quickly zooms in and stops in front of the semi-opaque class and inner section. The golden lights and pulse lines flash more visibly and brighter. When "got" in the second-to-the-last lyric is sung, a copy of the inner circle appears to swap place with the previous circle. The segments that are attached to the side briefly moved away before anchoring themselves to the circle. The process repeats and when the tempo for "got" hastens, the circle exchange quickly becomes a blur until it stops when "Got damn" is sung.
During the fourth verse, the tunnel is closed by a double-segmented faded golden circular door designed with black geometric Art Deco-style lines, with three-lined, scale-like patterns decorating the background. The circular door briefly flashes rose gold or gold colors before fading back to its original color. When paparazzi sound effects are heard, small golden lights appear on the edges of the outer circle.
During the bridge, the background changes into triangular Art Deco-styled patterns that flashes golden in sync. The patterns appear to be downward arrows, alternating shapes or a pulsing rhombus. As the song proceeds to the breakdown, the background slowly darkens and a large, dark gold curve slowly zooms into the center of the background, with the lines shown to be gold. The golden pattern flash still appears, in an upward pattern by the lower segments. As the coach raises his cane, the curve slowly moves down while the background's pattern slowly scrolls upwards while the upward golden pattern flashes appear for the duration. As the interlude is sung, the background quickly transitions to the chorus background.

There are 2 Gold Moves in this routine:

- Including Evil Like Me (Just Dance: Disney Party 2), A Little Party Never Killed Nobody (All We Got) is the fifth classic routine with an item in the franchise.
- A Little Party Never Killed Nobody (All We Got) is the first routine where the object is seen in the pictograms.
- One of the pictograms contain a little bit of red.

- Because of this, the song is also placed at the beginning of the K-R section of Just Dance Now.
- This was fixed later, and now the song is placed in the A-E section.
