The music video features cameo appearances by DJ Khaled, Fat Joe, Gunplay, Trina and Diddy. DJ Khaled and Rick Ross are stopped by the police on a Miami bridge for speeding and are asked for license and registration, but instead, Rick Ross gets out of the car and jumps off the bridge. Rick Ross races Diddy and Fat Joe on the water on speed boats and R. Kelly on the road. At the end of the song, the officer is given a watch and tells Rick Ross and DJ Khaled to have a nice day and they drive off.
