Rising out of New York’s Lower East Side with his effortless hooks, Day Lee releases a new single for “Bad Vibes” via Republic Records. The official lyric video will premiere on YouTube today at 6 pm ET.
On the single, “Bad Vibes,” his melodic Trap&B vocals remain as smooth as it gets. Centered around a “Nelly flip,” skittering cymbals and a simmering beat give way to magnetically melodic verses and a hypnotic hook, “I don’t want you round me with them bad vibes.”
“Lyrically, it’s something a lot of guys and girls can empathize with,” Day Lee explains. “You’re getting a bad feeling in a relationship. You have those butterflies in your chest and need to move on.”
The stop motion lyric video accented by colorful paint strokes and mixed media display Day Lee’s laid-back heartthrob aura. This video flaunts his creative background as a visual artist and illustrator.
Day Lee began to make a name for himself in 2017 when “Mattress” caught the attention of multiplatinum phenomenon PnB Rock who paved the way for Day Lee to sign to Republic Records. In the aftermath, he popped off with “Two” [feat. OhGeesy] and “Right There” [feat. PnB Rock], drumming up millions of streams between them.
