Marshmello has a knack for working with huge names in the hip hop community. On his last album, Shockwave, the prolific DJ brought in the talents of rappers like Juicy J and Megan Thee Stallion to deliver verses on his electronic pop tracks.
Now, Marshmello is working with English singer-songwriter Mae Muller and none other than Trippie Redd to deliver the song “American Psycho.” The track is a bit different in style for the DJ, as the instrumental delivers distorted power chords that feel straight out of an Avril Lavigne song. The lyrics take a page from the pop-punk playbook as well. “All the lies that I believed in / Why are you surprised that I’m leaving? / Put on quite a show / True American psycho,” sings Muller on the chorus. Trippie delivers a melodic verse with a similar tone, except in his story of troubled love, he’s the one labelled a psycho.
Check out the single and its video below. Let us know what you think of the song in the comments. Does it do its namesake Patrick Bateman proud?
Quotable Lyrics
Awe, she said that I’m a psycho
Woah, shе said I’m not her type though
Ooh, I’m out my mind, out my mind
I didn’t mеan to fall in love
