"Praise the Lord (Da Shine)" is a song by American rapper ASAP Rocky featuring vocals and sole production from English rapper Skepta, released as the second single from the former's third studio album Testing on June 26, 2018. It marks the third collaboration between both artists, following Skepta's appearance on ASAP Mob's Cozy Tapes Vol. 1: Friends and Rocky's appearance on Skepta's Vicious EP in 2017.

The song was successful in a number of countries, peaking at number 45 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 18 on the UK Official Singles Chart. It was later certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).

Background

[edit]

ASAP Rocky and Skepta had collaborated twice prior to the release of Praise the Lord, working on ASAP Mob's Cozy Tapes Vol. 1: Friends in 2016 and Skepta's Vicious EP in 2017. In his Verified video with Genius, Rocky revealed the entirety of the song was written in London while both him and Skepta were heavily under the influence of LSD.[1][2] The song features a sample from "Andean Stroll Panpipe 02" from Apple's GarageBand Jam Pack: World Music add-on for GarageBand.[3][better source needed]

Music video

The music video was directed by Dexter Navy and released to ASAP Rocky's YouTube channel on June 5, 2018.[4][5] It features a split screen showing scenes filmed in both New York and London, with cameo appearances from Tyler, the Creator, members of ASAP Mob and Skepta's younger brother Jme.[6][5] As of December 2024, it has been viewed over a 640 million times.[5]
