Brent Faiyaz has issued the official music video for “Pistachios.” In the visual, the DMV representative takes the audience on a night out with no shortage of friends, women, and $100 bills.
Directed by Belt and courtesy of ISO Supremacy, the visual takes the chart-topping musician from a parking garage smoke session with his homies to a twerk-filled party house party, and of course, a studio session. Throughout the video, Brent Faiyaz’s jewelry serves as a focal point. The song is produced by Dpat and samples Adina Howard’s “If We Make Love Tonight.”
“Weather like minus 50 on my pinkie/ It’s like minus 80 on my lady,” brags the R&B singer. “That’s minor sh*t when you a major/ I design the sh*t that make the label.”
“I really like ‘Pistachios.’ That might be my favorite [on the album]. It started with Brent wanting to flip the Adina Howard song that we sampled on that, ‘If We Make Love Tonight.’ Maybe from there that kind of subconsciously set the mood of being a sample-heavy album or with a mixtape approach,” he explained.
“I think that did set the tone. A lot of the samples were Brent wanting to use them.”
Much like the aforementioned song and music video, the album was designed to bring listeners into the R&B singer’s atmosphere.
“This is how I see the world. This is my universe. This is what we do. This is what it feels like,” shared the 28-year-old with Rolling Stone. “What I look like letting motherfu**ers tell me what my world looks like?”

Cardi B is in a New York state of mind. The Bronx native revealed on X over the weekend that she’s done with her Atlanta residence, and appears ready to unload the estate and settle down once again in the Big Apple.
“My casa….. I don’t want it nomore tho,” she wrote in response to an X account complimenting her Georgia home with a photo of the castle-like mansion featuring a beautiful backyard pool.
Cardi then explained that she doesn’t enjoy living in Atlanta — where her estranged husband Offset is from — and prefers to be back in New York full time.
“I don’t like living in Atlanta ….i actually don’t like living nowhere else but NY,” she responded to a fan on X who asked why she no longer wanted the lavish home.
Cardi and Offset reportedly purchased the five-bedroom home in 2019 for more than $5 million. She also owns property in New Jersey and the Dominican Republic. The “Bodak Yellow” rapper filed for divorce from Offset for a second time over the summer. They have three kids together.
Though the Grammy-winning artist may no longer want the mansion, another musician may be interested. A blog reposted the photo of Cardi’s tweet of the Atlanta home, and it eventually landed on Rick Ross’ radar, who inquired about the mansion’s cost. “Asking price??” he wrote in the comments section.
Billboard has reached out to Cardi B and Rick Ross’ reps for comment.
The MMG mogul has quite the real estate portfolio himself, including the 109-room Fayetteville, Ga., estate that previously belonged to boxing legend Evander Holyfield.
Rozay also bought Meek Mill’s Atlanta residence for $4.2 million in 2023 after the property sat on the real estate market for more than two years. Meek’s former crib boasts a swimming pool, tennis court, movie theater and more to go along with the eight bedrooms and nine baths.
