Rising pop singer Laura Greaves steps forth with her latest single and video titled ‘Psychopath’ featuring Khwezi and Lhotse.
Directed by Cat Job, Greaves is involved in what appears to be a crime/mystery thriller. There are visuals of the vocalist driving a car to an unknown location which could possibly suggest the murder of a lover as other scenes feature Laura Greaves slowly stroking a male body as he lays without movement. The video is a great accompaniment to the killer track…no pun intend!
The song itself is a bouncy pop offering that stacked with husky synths and Laura Greaves’ seductive performance. ‘Psychopath’ is taken from her current EP Into the dark, which was released in May.
Regarding the single, Laura Greaves stated:
“We started ‘Psychopath’ off with just a rough instrumental and then the idea was that we were going to make something cool but upbeat. I listened and immediately thought that it sounded kind of dark with the distorted “Purge” style alarm at the beginning, I then ran with that theme. I also am obsessed with true crime and so once I came up with that first line, “I’ve met the devil he’s handsome, he’s never heard of The Manson’s” it was essentially going to be an homage to everything creepy and twisted that I love. I wanted it to be from the point of view of a Psychopath who is chatting about how much they just don’t want to be alone inside their heads anymore, and that essentially they’re about to carry out something quite sinister, but it’s framed in the way they’re thinking about it, almost in a love story way.”
