Music video
[edit]The music video of the song was directed by Cole Bennett. It features NLE Choppa waking up in the morning to find an afro-wearing and mustached clone of himself hiding in his closet.[3] He chases the intruder, and tries to shoot him with a paintball gun. In the kitchen, he is shot at by a group of toy soldiers, and defeats them by throwing hot Cheetos at them.[4] Choppa then runs to his mother's room and tells her about the chaos; however, she orders him to wash the dishes instead.[5] As the rapper does so, he gets teased by some talking fruits. He chops them up, but is caught by his mother for making a mess.[3] As of April 2023, it has over 95 million views.
