The song addresses both Bieber and Mendes' rise to fame and the way in which they were put on a pedestal at a young age. In the video, they can both be seen singing to camera on a stage outdoors at night.
Both pop stars were were born and raised in the province - Mendes in Pickering, ON and Bieber in Stratford, ON - and for years, fans were hoping for a collaboration between the two.

They also announced that they'll be performing at the American Music Awards together.
