The single also serves as one of the lead releases from Lil Baby’s upcoming album Dominique.

A Story of Success

Scenes filmed on a tennis court, golf course and upscale locations complement the song’s polished production. Lil Baby showcases several designer outfits throughout the visual, reinforcing the luxurious lifestyle described in the lyrics while blending modern fashion with his street roots.
