Praise The Lord (Da Shine)

About this song

The song is the fifth track on A$AP Rocky's third studio album, TESTING, and marks the third collaboration between Rocky and Skepta after "Put That on My Set" and "Ghost Ride". Before release, both Rocky's crew and Skepta teased it during an Instagram live. The chorus and last two verses interpolate DMX's flow from "Who We Be" as a tribute to his rhyming, and the music video, released June 5, 2018, was shot in Harlem and London. The track also features a prominent sample of a panpipe piece from Apple GarageBand's World Music pack.

What it's about

The song is a boastful track about the rappers' skill and success, but the text does not explain its story or message beyond that.
