Throughout, the Game Boyz stand near or drive the gold Buick Electra 225 that is featured on the Gold Nigga album artwork and referred to as their Deuce & A Quarter. The license plate is customized and bears the name of the song on the rearplate and NPG on the front.

The video ends with the message "Are U the new power generation? Come join. What are we if we're not 2gether?".
