Music video

The official music video was directed by Bille Woodruff. It features a large group of young people dancing in a room, whilst the Honeyz perform in the foreground. There are also scenes featuring the group singing against a red backdrop and on a stage in front of a gold wall, as well as Naima Belkhiati and Célena Cherry in black leather catsuits with a man each.

Multiple versions of the video were released. Initially, the video featured founding member Heavenli Abdi. A second cut was released where she was heavily edited out of the video, due to her abrupt departure from the group prior to the video's official release. A third version was then released with scenes featuring new member Mariama Goodman, who joined the group following Heavenli Abdi's departure.
