"Young Wheezy" on YouTube |
The music video, directed by Spike Jordan, has a Halloween theme and plays on the lyrics "Cost an arm and a leg just to see me perform".[2][3] The video begins with a long line of people waiting at a venue, where Nav and Gunna and Travis Scott are hosting a party, with dismembered limbs as their required tickets to enter. A group of teens talk about how they obtained the limbs, indicating how eager they were to go.[4] Inside the house, Nav and Gunna are seen performing, while "spooky visual effects" are also taking place.[2][5] A "hefty collection" of the severed limbs are shown at one point.[6] Travis Scott makes a cameo, seen with the collaborators as they surround an open grave. Wheezy also appears in the video; he later dissolves into water in the middle of a laundromat.[2][3]
Nav and Gunna performed the song on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in February 2021.
