Following the global smash “Run Back to You” with Lauv, Asian megastar Lay Zhang is back to dominate the music scene with his new single, “Psychic.” Released via Warner Music China, the song is the second lead single paving the way for his highly anticipated English album debut later this year.
Lay’s commitment to his international audience is evident in this release, which offers versions in English, Chinese, and Korean. Crafted in collaboration with Rykeyz, Sean Douglas, JHart, and Kyle Reynolds – with Grammy-nominated Rykeyz leading production – the track represents Lay’s artistic evolution.
“Psychic” is a vibrant fusion of high energy, garage, and bass rhythms, and R&B chordal movements, highlighting Lay’s growth on the global music scene. The accompanying music video was shot in Dubai, featuring an international cast and crew from over 20 countries.
Directed by Los Angeles-based Andrew Donoho, known for his dreamlike visuals, the video showcases Lay’s mesmerizing dance performance against Dubai’s stunning landscapes, including the desert, underwater scenes at The Lost Chambers Aquarium, and iconic cityscapes like Burj Khalifa and Atlantis, The Palm.
“Psychic” is now available on major streaming platforms following its official release on April 17.
