Kane Brown and Marshmello’s summer anthem, “Miles On It,” comes to life in a just-released music video featuring the artists living it up alongside some friends at an impromptu outdoor dance party filled with trucks, music, and good times.
Before inviting their friends out for a summer hang on an empty baseball field, Brown and Marshmello get the clay prepped while racing around on mini bulldozers. The real excitement starts when their crew arrives, leading a parade of jacked-up trucks with the iconic Monster Jam truck Grave Digger at the center. Fans will recognize a few familiar faces in the clip, including Cody Detwiler, a YouTube creator known for his channel, WhistlinDiesel.
The country star and the Grammy-nominated artist and producer appear to be having the time of their lives as a full-on dance party ensues. The action intensifies as the sun sets and a bonfire blazes on the field. At one point, the police show up, threatening to break up their party, but the cops quickly join in the fun as a fireworks display lights up the night sky.
The music video was directed by Brown’s longtime collaborator, Alex Alvga, who has also directed his music videos for “Thank God,” “Worldwide Beautiful,” and more.
“Miles On It” was released earlier this month and made radio history as Kane Brown and Marshmello became the first male artists to simultaneously be the most-added on both the Pop and Country Radio Charts with their song “Miles On It.” They join Taylor Swift and Beyoncé as the only artists to achieve this milestone. Additionally, “Miles On It” is the first collaboration in history to accomplish this feat.
The buzzed-about collaboration is expected to appear on Brown’s forthcoming studio album, which will serve as the follow up to his 2022 project, Different Man. During a recent conversation with Country Now, Brown revealed that he initially set out to release a more traditional country-leaning album, however, a few new collaborations, including this one with Marshmello, fell into his lap and ultimately changed the album’s overall vibe.
“I keep getting songs and I’m like, ‘This is it’, and I have so many. I was trying to go to the country route where everything’s super country, but then we just get these other collabs that are just massive,” Brown told us in April before his Chicago concert.
Of “Miles On It,” the soon-to-be father of three shared how the collab came about and revealed that his team can’t get enough of the song.
“Mellow just came back in and was like, ‘You ready for part two?’ And we wrote a song. My band just keeps saying, ‘Yo, will you send me that song? I want to listen to it.’ It is just a massive song.”
Massive is right – the song has 27 million plays on Spotify alone. It’s sure to be one of the biggest songs of summer 2024.
This marks the second collaboration between Brown and Marshmello, following 2019’s “One Thing Right.” This song went on to rake in over 1.3 billion streams worldwide and is now certified 5x platinum.
The artists joined together to perform the song during Brown’s recent headlining concert in Las Vegas. The surprise performance had fans jumping along to the infectious beat while belting out the lyrics. See above for a clip.
