The music video, directed by Rik Cordero, was recorded in Los Angeles and New York City. It has recently been released online and features cameos from actors of differing ethnicities.

In the beginning of the video Nas' song "Proclamation" from Untitled can be heard.

Roles

gollark: mmWave is not useful for phones since you could probably just use WiFi at such ranges and it's not useful for fixed devices since there needs to be a tower or something very close and you might as well just run a fibre line.
gollark: Governments see it as a bragging thing now so there's a scramble to be "more techy".
gollark: Selling useless overhyped 5G devices?
gollark: Who doesn't want really short range communications still billed as mobile data?
gollark: Yes, which seems especially pointless.
