King Bach Gives Us a Hilarious Set Tour of His Abstinence Music Video
About this video
What do you do when you're the most followed user on a social media platform that no longer exists? Just keep hustin'! And that is exactly what Andrew B. Bachelor, AKA King Bach, is doing in a post-Vine world. Young Hollywood catches up with him at a Super Exclusive Filming Location™ where he is shooting the music video for his country-inspired song "Abstinence" and getting in touch with his inner Lil Nas X. Sporting some serious cowboy swag, Bach tells us more about his album and how it explores several different musical genres to keep things interesting and its listeners happy and having a good time. He also shows us a bit around the set, shows off his kit, and reveals that he is also directing the video. Could an Oscar be in his future?! Or at least a VMA...

What's up? It's King Bach, and right now we are shooting the music video, abstinence. It's about me breaking up with my hand. There you have it. You heard it here first. The album, it consists of, uh, different variations of music. This is the country song. Of course, we have a reggae song, we got rap songs. It's a whole bunch of different varieties. We paid $3.2 million for this location, so it's very exclusive. They shot The Avengers here, they shot Gladiator here, and they shot Brokeback Mountain way over there. Oh, here, they shot, they're setting up right now, they're about to do a steady cam, 'cause you see how when we rock, walked down these hills, see how bumpy it is? With the steady cam, you won't feel no bumps, you won't see no bumps, and you won't hear no bumps. As you can see, I'm glistening too. That's just natural juices and berries. This is Andy, he's been the DP since, before time. Before time began, actually. Yeah, he's not really a talker. A multi-dimensional. Well, this is awkward. I'm starring in him and I'm directing him. You know, sometimes you just gotta do everything. Sometimes you gotta do everything yourself. Your boy is really swagged out right now, from head to toe, literally from head to toe. Got the cowboy swag. I got this hat. This is, oh, these flies are biting me. See the water was so clean, the flies want peace. All right, so look, the hat. This is actually from Howard & Phills. Y'all probably don't know that, that, uh, clothing brand, but this hat goes for $2,000. The overalls, custom made, made them myself. The boots were made for walking, and that's just what they do. And yeah, the guitar is a, uh, Derosa. Blink 182 uses same exact guitar. Billy Ray Cyrus uses same guitar. Garth Brooks used this guitar in his very first music video, and he let me borrow it. And that's facts. Rumors are that, um, I'm actually nominated for an Oscar just off the playback. So, uh, it's crazy. You know, but this isn't a life that I, I wanted. It was the life that was given to me. Who knows, maybe we get a Grammy. I speak horse. No fighting. We got the same dentist, so I was just trying to see if he was working today. I don't think he's working today. I don't ride horses, not since the accident. Not my accident. Christopher Reeves. I wanna do a comedy music album because I like happy music. I like music that you listen to that makes you feel good. There hasn't been that type of music that was directed to that certain genre. The biggest challenge from doing everything from directing to acting, I just wanna be in my bed sleeping and watching Netflix movies. But I'm out here working and grinding and getting it done. It's fun.
How did Instagram help?
I don't know, Instagram didn't really do nothing here. This was all me. But if Instagram wanna pay for the next music videos, I'm down. We'll do an Instagram exclusive release. My videos are crazy, but me in real life, I'm just like this. Just laid back and chill. That's scary. This horse is really in the back. He was not lying, Lil Nas X. I hope this album lets my fans know that entertainment is entertainment. It could be acting, it could be stand-up, and it could be music. Maybe one day I open my own, uh, restaurant or launch my own wine company. Is it wine company or wine vineyard or? I don't know. I'll just sell alcohol to the fans. So they can be happy. Celebration wine. Young Hollywood, that's a wrap on the music video. I'm King Bach. I'm out. Douces. Should I drop the mic, or is it expensive?
