Music video
The three artists were supposed to film a music video for the track in Beverly Hills, but it was never finished due to a shooting on set, though none of them were injured.[2] Surveillance footage showed gunmen firing on the set.[3] On November 16, 2018, 6ix9ine claimed while visiting The Breakfast Club that the video had "already been shot", but two days later he was set to show up to shoot additional footage for the video but was arrested instead on racketeering charges. Since no word have come out of the video since the arrest it has been indicated that it has been scrapped.[4]
