The visually stunning video is immersed in surrealism, with the opening scene showing Lamar sailing over a sea of waving human hands. SZA sings and dances in a starlit universe while Lamar raps his lyrics amid scenes of bombs exploding over shack-ridden villages, walking through a desolate forest with a gang of panthers by his side. In the end, Lamar and SZA present themselves in front of giant god-like women and the video closes with a glowing silhouette of the African continent revealed in SZA’s hair.
