Preview
A trailer for the song was uploaded on Arcángel's YouTube channel on October 29, 2023. It was directed by Omar Rivera and produced by Mayte Avina, and features Mexican-American actor Danny Trejo. The trailer starts with Trejo getting his boots shined by two young boys, telling them both how a person is willing to sacrifice everything, originally coming "from the bottom," and telling them "ever since [he] was a kid, he likes the job.".
Music video
A music video was released a day later, as a continuation from the trailer. After Trejo receives a shoeshine, he is seen sitting at a table, thinking about a gunfire that occurred. Arcángel and Peso Pluma can be seen as employees at a restaurant and are also seen as accomplices to Trejo. Throughout the video, both artists help Trejo in avoiding his rivals.
