He said, 'Nah, but I got a million dollars.' And we laughed. I found a way to be me without trying to look like I was more rich than what I was portraying. I didn't want to come off like I'm more richer than what I really am. It's a song about trying to spread love in the hood and giving back so I made it more or less like that. ## Music video A music video was shot in [Brooklyn](/source/Brooklyn), [New York](/source/New_York_(state)) with director [Edwin Decena](/source/Edwin_Decena).
