[edit | edit source]

A music video for the song, directed by Dexter Navy and co-directed by ASAP Rocky himself,[2] was released on May 19, 2015. The second half of the music video contains a snippet of "Excuse Me" which also appears on the album. Navy is known for directing other music videos for ASAP Rocky such as Kids Turned Out Fine and ASAP Forever. The video for "LSD" was nominated for Best Music Video at the 58th Annual Grammy Awards. The video directly borrows imagery and was heavily influenced[3] by French director Gaspar Noe's 2009 psychedelic art film Enter the Void. The song came in at number 64 on the Triple J Hottest 100 for 2015.
