Tokyo glows differently at night. The kind of glow that seeps into glass windows and hotel hallways, into the quiet space between two people thinking about each other at the same time.

That’s where Travis Scott places us in the new video for “PBT,” his hypnotic collaboration with Tyla and Vybez Kartel. Shot entirely in Tokyo, the visual doesn’t rush. It waits. It watches. It lets the tension settle before it ever touches skin.

The city opens first: neon bleeding into the skyline, movement everywhere but silence inside. Scott and Tyla exist separately at the start, divided by walls and thoughts. He looks restless, pacing the edges of anticipation. She moves with intention, calm and self-possessed, getting ready like she already knows how the night will end. Memories interrupt the present: flashes of something earlier, lighter, a moment when time felt optional. Then the pause breaks. No speeches. No grand gestures. Just a look, a decision, and two figures disappearing into the same corridor.

Directed by Nabil, the video understands that intimacy doesn’t need excess. The most seductive moments happen in restraint – what’s unsaid, what’s almost touched. Kartel appears like a distant echo, a voice carried through the walls, blessing the moment without ever needing to step into it. When the night finally erupts into celebration, it feels earned. Like the release after holding your breath too long.

“PBT” lives in that late-night space where genres blur, and emotions sharpen. Afrobeats warmth slides into dancehall heat, carried by Tyla’s smooth, confident delivery and Scott’s loverboy haze. It’s the sound of city lights reflecting off skin, of music meant for after the party, not during. Billboard called the track proof that Scott’s versatility is fully alive again, while Sports Illustrated described it simply, and accurately, as “a vibe.”

The song arrives from JACKBOYS 2, a project that feels less like a traditional compilation and more like a late-night gathering of voices, ideas, and instincts. Debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, the album pulls together a stacked lineup – Future, 21 Savage, Playboi Carti, Don Toliver, GloRilla, Sheck Wes, Kodak Black, and more – guided by Scott’s ear for atmosphere and hosted by Texas legend Bun B. It’s a celebration of collaboration without borders, where the punch matters more than labels.

For Scott, “PBT” is a reminder that spectacle isn’t always the point. After sold-out stadiums, record-breaking tours, and cultural dominance, this moment zooms inward. Smaller rooms. Softer lights. A story told in glances instead of fireworks.

Tokyo hums in the background as the video fades, still awake, still glowing. And somewhere between neon reflections and unfinished thoughts, “PBT” lingers – unrushed, unapologetic, and impossible to forget once the night finally ends.
