The song has garnered over 3,500 views as of Tuesday night.

The Houma Police Department has launched an administrative investigation into how one of its officers ended up in a rap music video featuring a group flashing cash and guns.

The music video shows a Houma Police officer standing next to an agency vehicle as the group dances for the camera next to her.

The artist, Fvme Tha Goat, wrote on his Facebook page that the guns aren’t real, and the group does not appear to be waving them any time the officer or the vehicle is on camera.

The song, uploaded onto YouTube on Sept. 7, has garnered over 3,500 views as of Tuesday night.

Houma Police Chief Dana Coleman wrote in a message to The Courier and Daily Comet that the department does not “condone any acts of violence nor do we stand by the lyrics of this song.”

The department has not released the name of the officer, citing the confidentiality of the investigation, but may release the information at another time, Coleman wrote.

Jalisa Mulligan, who shot the video, said the officers had stopped and asked the group what they were doing, and they told them they were shooting a music video.

As they were talking with group, Mulligan said she was filming.

“They were really cool,” Mulligan said. “They were definitely good cops. They were just making sure we were staying out of trouble.”

She added they “probably didn’t” know the content of the song.

Mulligan also said the guns were props, and that no one had one when the officers were around.

“We know how that can turn out if there are guns on a scene with a cop,” Mulligan said. “Everybody would be arrested or somebody would be dead. Trust me, no cop was around when there was a prop gun.”
