Controversy

On November 16, 2012, Chief Keef was a no-show to the set of the video in Las Vegas for the song leaving guests 50 Cent and Wiz Khalifa to shoot other videos instead.[1]

On May 21, 2013, Katy Perry tweeted her dislike for the song.[2] Keef responded with a series of tweets threatening Perry and hinted that he would release a diss track aimed at her.[3][4][5] Shortly afterward, the two recording artists reconciled.[6]

50 Cent released the video for the single on April 29, 2020 via YouTube,[7] sending out a tweet from his official Twitter account.[8]
