In the video, Young expressed how much it meant to him to have friends and fans show their support and reassure him that they don't believe he did anything wrong.
"It was a relief to see the charges dropped. No one should have to experience something like that. However, the positive aspect was witnessing the overwhelming love and support."
The event occurred at a bar called the Dawg House in the city center of Nashville.
Footage from a security camera captures Young appearing composed as he tries to get the attention of an agent from the Tennessee Alcohol Beverage Commission by raising his arm. The agent responds by pushing Young, causing him to trip and fall inside the bar.
Young mentions in the video that he is still trying to make sense of the false accusations and events that occurred in the previous week. Towards the end of the video, he shares that the encouragement and support from his fans motivated him to release a new song from his upcoming album ahead of schedule.
The new album "Double Down" will be released on Friday, February 2nd, at midnight.
"Turn up the volume and savor the moment. I am grateful for you, I care for you, and I appreciate your presence," Young expresses.
