After premiering her new music video at a premiere party at the House of Vans, Chicago’s Jamila Woods has now publicly shared the visual for “LSD.” The clip for her collab with Chance The Rapper was directed by Chicago Public Schools (CPS) students, in a project together with Chicago-based VAM Studio.
The three forces came together and conceptualized the “LSD” video to include aspiring filmmakers from CPS, ultimately selecting one student’s idea and brought it to life. Ashley Huicochea, a senior from Prosser Career Academy, and was able to shadow the directors (Vincent Martell & Sam Bailey of VAM Studio) on the set during the shoot, while the six student runners up were able to shadow other key parts of the production. See the full list of finalists below.
Along with that release, Jamila Woods’ debut LP, HEAVN will now be available to purchase for the first time via Jagjaguwar and her original label home, Closed Sessions. Get your copy, in a variety of formats and packages, here.
