Directed by Diana Kunst,[5] the visual sees "Twigs and Rocky serve all of the looks while causing mayhem in the streets and then taking it elsewhere from a fancy restaurant to a grungy strip club."[6] The video's production was handled by Object Animal and O Creative Studio.[7]
The duo wore clothes designed by a range of high-fashion outlets such as Calvin Klein, Alexander Wang, Dior, and Versace, among others.[8] Since its premiere on November 2, 2018, the video has received over 30 million views.[9] Fellow rapper Kanye West praised the video on his Twitter.[10] Tosten Burks of Spin likened the video to the film Blade Runner.[11]
The duo performed the song at Redbull's Music Festival in May 2019.[12][13] Following the performance, Trace William Owen of Complex magazine praised the performance and said "[audiences] don't talk enough about 'Fukk Sleep'".[14]
