Post Malone and 21 Savage's 2017 music video for their hit single "Rockstar" has scored 1 billion views on YouTube within 5 years of its release.
It marks the third music video by Post Malone and the first by 21 Savage to reach the milestone.
The video, directed by Emil Nava, features Post Malone in a room fighting against a gang of men with samurai swords, and ends with both the rappers covered in blood.
"Rockstar" is the lead single from Malone's second studio album Beerbongs & Bentleys, released on September 15, 2017, by Republic Records. The artists co-wrote the song with producers Louis Bell and Tank God.
Despite receiving mixed reviews by music critics, the track became Malone's most successful hit, reaching No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100 and in many other countries.
The song was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Rap/Sung Performance at the Grammy Awards.

Pop star Lorde dropped a music video for "The Path" on Tuesday, June 21, in celebration of the summer solstice.
The video of the opening track of 2021's Solar Power was directed by Lorde along with her frequent collaborator Joel Kefali.
In the video, which is set in the beachside community featured in the "Solar Power" video, the singer wanders through the deserted island as her fellow castaways do their daily tasks.
"Now if you're looking for a savior, that's not me/ You need someone to take your pain for you, well that's not me/ 'Cause we are all broken inside, where are the dreams that we had?/ Can't find the dreams that we had/ Let's hope the sun will show us the path," she sings in the chorus.
"On the occasion of the solstice, I wanted to share a sixth video with you, for THE PATH. This video is the first chapter in the mystical Solar Power story, a prequel to the title video," Lorde explained about the new video. "You see my character joining her friends and family on the island where they've chosen to start life anew, arriving in her trademark suit and quickly being transformed by nature's strange magic. I'm so proud of my buds for learning the dance in this one. Hope you like it."
Lorde has previously released several videos for Solar Power tracks, including "Secrets From a Girl (Who's Seen It All)," "Leader of a New Regime," "Fallen Fruit," "Mood Ring," and the title track.
