The official music video for the song premiered alongside its release on February 5,2021. [7] It was directed by Edgar Esteves and shot in Los Angeles,California. [8] It contains a large house party that shows them in the company of women and dancing. [9]
Brandon Caldwell from HipHopDX claimed that the video shows G-Eazy "wooing a woman he met at a burger stop,taking her on a shopping spree in a send-up to the '90s coming of age comedy Clueless " and Chris Brown "being one of the main stars of the party,going from inside to the front yard to roof and more".
