Emerging Chicago-based recording artist Viv Badynee, aka V!V, returns to grace our eardrums with the release of her latest single “Psych!” The track comes from V!V’s impressive sophomore single, My NRG.

Speaking about the title of her new single Viv says, “with Psych! I’m thinking both about the definitional meaning of psychology, as well as the slang term sike (using mind games to fool someone). It’s about thinking a relationship is going one way and then it turning 180° on you. My response to most unpredicted behavior from people is to figure out the how and why using psychological concepts. It doesn’t always work.”

Viv wrote “Psych!” in collaboration with her producer CBVB (who happens to be her dad). He explains, “Viv had a lyrical motif and a melody that she felt demanded a slower, vibey track that’d be more in touch with her soul/r&b side as compared to the upbeat feels of her last two singles, MY NRG & Sun x Moon. I also wanted it to be more minimal and intimate with Viv’s voice right up front.”
