Composition
editThe verse from Von is the same as the original song, however, there is the addition of Durk's verse that uses a flow that takes Von's cadence and metrics, but adapting them to his style. Basically Durk continues the first story telling with the aftermath of the events and depicting a scenario of revenge for the previous ambush by the "opps".

editThe music video was released on May 20, 2019. It shows Von and Durk in the neighborhood with other OTF members, including Booka600, Memo600, DoodieLo, with interspersed scenes of shootings describing the lyrics of the song
