Young expressed how much it meant to him that many friends and fans showed their support and reassured him that they didn't believe he was involved in any of the accusations.
"It's a relief to see the charges being dropped. Nobody should have to experience something like this. The positive aspect was the overwhelming love and support that was shown."
The event occurred at a restaurant called the Dawg House in the downtown area of Nashville.
In the security camera footage, Young appears to be composed and collected before he tries to grab the attention of a Tennessee Alcohol Beverage Commission agent by reaching out his arm. The agent responds by pushing Young, causing him to stumble backwards into the bar and ultimately fall over.
Young expresses that he is still dealing with the aftermath of false accusations and events that occurred in the previous week at the beginning of the video. Towards the end, he shares that the encouragement and support from fans motivated him to release a new song from his upcoming album ahead of schedule.
The new release "Double Down" will be available this Friday, February 2nd, starting at midnight.
"Turn up the volume and have a good time. I am grateful for you, I have love for you, and I want to say thank you," Young expresses.
