In the video, Young expressed how much it meant to him to have friends and fans show their support and disbelief in the accusations against him.
"It was a relief to see the charges dropped. No one should have to experience something like that. The silver lining was the overwhelming love and support that was shown."
The event occurred at a bar called the Dawg House located in the central area of Nashville.
In the security camera footage, Young appears to be staying composed before he tries to get the attention of a Tennessee Alcohol Beverage Commission agent by reaching out towards him. The agent then pushes Young, causing him to lose his balance, fall back into the bar, and trip over.
"I am still trying to understand and deal with the false accusations and events that happened in the previous week," Young mentions at the beginning of the video. Towards the end, he shares that the support from his fans motivated him to release a new song from his upcoming album earlier than planned.
The release of "Double Down" is scheduled for Friday at midnight on February 2nd.
"Turn up the volume, have a great time. I am grateful for you, I care about you, and I want to say thank you," Young expresses.
