Other clips show the artists singing to Nina and Malin as they try to leave a hotel. You get the impression the ladies were once in love with Post Malone and Dwight, but things have since soured.

The best part of the video is when Dwight and Post Malone saddle up on a pair of horses and ride down the street together. The video ends that way, with the two of them riding off into the night.
