The LA Weekly was on the set of Pusha’s upcoming video with Odd Future’s Tyler, The Creator (foot cast included). The Neptunes-produced track will be featured on Pusha’s upcoming EP which will drop in August. Director Jason Goldwatch explains the concept below. More footage after the jump.


For the “Trouble on My Mind” video, the art is just as much in the destruction as in the creation. The dingy hotel room set will be demolished by a bunch of Odd Future’s crew, including members Taco and Jasper Dolphin, within a couple of hours. As they begin to trash the room for the camera, Goldwatch repeatedly tells them to calm down, almost like a dad telling his kids to use their indoor voices. Teenage-boy testosterone sucks the air out of the space almost as much as the fumes of fireworks and spray paint do. Pusha T has disappeared. Tyler’s tricks, like purposefully stumbling off his crutches and into the bedside dresser, are funny to newcomers, but it’s getting late.
