ASAP Rocky had a grand old time at this year’s SXSW. As he told the New York Post in an extremely candid interview, his experience at the Austin, TX festival consisted of taking acid and sleeping with nine — yes, nine — different women.
Why do you think LSD is so in vogue in rap right now? It’s obviously an influence on your new material, and for artists like Chance the Rapper and ILoveMakonnen too.
There’s definitely a psychedelic influence on my new album. Makonnen gave me acid at SxSW. This n***a looked like Buddha with a Jheri curl! After that, I went back to my mansion and f**ked nine chicks. It was pretty rad. That’s a true story.
Did you say nine women? As in, one fewer than 10?
Yeah, but not all at one time. It’s like group sex. You have three at a time, and then you have three orgies. That’s nine chicks.
You’ve mentioned that you use LSD to help you cope with life, especially after breaking up with Chanel Iman and the death of A$AP Yams. But do you ever fear you might become reliant on it?
Nah, I don’t rely on that s**t. Look at me — I’m cozy. I do smoke weed every day, though.
