Music video
A music video to accompany the song was first released onto YouTube on March 18, 2014 at a total length of four minutes and eleven seconds. The narrator is a priest in Las Vegas and weds several couples inside the chapel including a loan shark and his bride, a rancher and his bride, and even an older couple. Throughout the song, the priest becomes increasingly irritable and jealous of the beautiful women he is blessing, at one point, even yelling out in his outrage, causing a scene. Finally, an African-American man (A$AP Ferg) walks down the aisle with a very beautiful woman (portrayed by Amra Silajdžić), and the priest is awestruck. The man snaps his fingers at the priest impatiently after noticing him staring at her, to which the priest pushes the man away and runs away with the woman and jumps into a car (a 1987 Ford Mustang GT convertible) and the chauffeur drives them off. The song closes out with the priest on the side of the road peeing onto the vegetation when he hears the tires squeal and tries chasing down the Mustang as the chauffeur and the bride drive off without him, leaving him stranded.
Use in the media
