Music video

The music video was directed by Disturbing Tha Peace CEO Chaka Zulu.[1] It begins with Tity Boi (aka 2 Chainz) getting up from bed for breakfast. He gets dressed and rides in a Lamborghini Gallardo, in which he picks up Lil Wayne, handing him a duffle bag. They then head to a concert. Meanwhile, Dolla Boy sells some CDs to a boy in exchange for a duffle bag, then receives a text message to meet Tity Boi and Lil Wayne. At the end of the video, all three of them are seen performing together.
