The track serves as the second lead single from his highly anticipated English album, set for release this year under Warner Music China. Psychic is available in three versions, English, Chinese, and Korean, showing Lay’s commitment to his global fans and his versatility and appeal across diverse cultural landscapes.
Following the immense success of “Run to You”, Lay’s recent collaboration with American singer Lauv, Psychic is set to continue Lay’s musical triumph. The track is crafted in collaboration with a team of renowned artists, J Hart, Kyle Reynolds, Rykeyz, and Sean Douglas. Rykeyz takes the lead of production, adding a unique depth to the song which is a dynamic blend of high energy beats, garage and bass rhythms, and R&B chordal movements. The producer is famed for his contributions to the works of esteemed artists such as Skip Marley, H.E.R., SAYGRACE, Demi Lovato, Chris Brown, and Bebe Rexha.
Lyrically, Psychic dives into the depths of a deep bond between two people, their connection so intense that it borders on a psychic connection. The song also delves into the possibilities that unfold when such mutual attraction goes further.
Lay’s artistry shines not only through the song’s lyrical narrative but also in its accompanying music video. Directed by Los Angeles based director, Andrew Donoho, the music video features Lay’s mesmerizing dance performance set against the enchanting backdrop of Dubai’s stunning landscapes.
With the release of Psychic, Lay reclaims his presence in the KPop scene as he kicks off his promotional activities for the song. He will be performing the Korean version of Pyschic on music show programs including MNET’s MCountdown, MBC’s Show! Music Core, and SBS’s Inkigayo. Lay unveiled the stage for Psychic for the first time on MCountdown last April 18th, igniting anticipation among fans for what’s to come.
