Music video

The music video was released on August 22, 2018, via Migos' YouTube channel Migos ATL. It was directed by Quavo, Joseph DeRosiers Jr. and Edgar Esteves.[1] The visual starts off at a mobster's mansion, where Quavo is having a discussion about loyalty with his mob boss while they are playing pool. As the boss's niece, played by Quavo's girlfriend Saweetie, walks to them, Quavo keeps his eyes on her. However, the boss threatens his life if he ever "goes after" her.[2] After Quavo ignores the threats, he and Saweetie are kidnapped by the mob boss, who ends up getting shot and killed by his own security guard.[3]
