The Drew Milo-directed clip sees Jones, CJ Fly, and Mr. Muthafuckin' Exquire — who appear on the track — running through NYC's subway on the F and G lines, dropping off gritty, golden-era style raps.

"I met Drew Milo through Mr. Star City, a legend amongst the New York nightlife scene," Jones told FADER over email. "Drew and I first collaborated on the “Flock” video and this is a loose spinoff, with Flock’s ending and the “Know The Type” opening sequence tying into one another...This is probably a very shitty analogy, but Drew is the Scorsese to my DeNiro, Flock was our Mean Streets, but this one is more our Taxi Driver."
