Of course, it's none other than Miami's own Gil Green who is so cliqued up with every big name South Florida rapper (Rick Ross, Sean Kingston, Flo Rida, Wayne, DJ Khaled...etc) that it only makes since that he directed this.

You won't notice a whole lot' of 305 hood hollering like usual, but you will see Opa Locka's Brisco make a cameo which made the whole video worthwhile.
