In Just Dance: Summer Party, the equalizer is removed from the buildings.

Trivia
- "F**k" is censored.
- "Jeans", "hell", and "But I’mma like what's underneath them" are censored in Just Dance: Extra Songs. However, none of these words were censored in Just Dance 2, Just Dance: Summer Party, or in the remake.
- This is the first time in the series which a full line is censored.
- The lyrics do not display an ellipsis (...) for censored lyrics. When "hell" is censored, it is replaced with a gap.
- During the production of the downloadable track, both of the pictograms were purple and the meters were different.
- The lyric "Rappin’"/"I know what you’re drinkin'" is wrong, as it should be "Ribena I know what you're drinkin’".
- The line "I’ll show you to my brethren" is misinterpreted as "I'll show you to my bedroom".
- There is a glitch in the shop on Just Dance 2 involving this song: when choosing to download Firework, the short preview shows the routine for this song and not the correct one. This can happen in both of the NTSC and PAL shop.
- In a picture of a beta-development routine, the pictograms from Chicken Payback are used.
- In the trailer for Just Dance: Summer Party/Extra Songs, the dancer for Pump Up The Volume is shown dancing in front of the background for this routine.
- When the coaches do Gold Moves 2 and 3, P1’s hat and P2’s hair gets lighter. This is probably because of the gradient of the dancer’s clothes.
