"To the Top" is a digital single released by the Japanese seven-member dance and vocal group Psychic Fever on February 5, 2023, under the labels High Cloud Entertainment and LDH Records.[1] The song marks Psychic Fever's first collaboration with an overseas artist not affiliated with LDH, featuring the Thai six-member group DVI from 4nologue.[2] The track is also included in the group's first extended play (EP) Psychic File I, released on May 17, 2023.[3]
Following their debut, Psychic Fever traveled to Thailand from the summer of 2022 to early 2023 alongside fellow LDH group Ballistik Boyz, as part of a partnership program with High Cloud Entertainment and F.Hero. The members participated in a six-month "training program",[4] during which they performed at events including Big Mountain Music Festival 12, one of Southeast Asia's largest music festivals.[5]
The song was produced by F.Hero, one of Thailand's most prominent rappers, and Nino, leader of the Thai creative collective Hype Train.[6]
The track features a pop and R&B sound with lyrics expressing the passion of young people striving for success. The collaboration between Psychic Fever and DVI was initiated by F.Hero.[4]
Music video
The official music video was released on February 9, 2023, on High Cloud Entertainment's YouTube channel.[2] The visual concept draws from early 1990s Broadway and television shows, blending influences from hip hop, jazz, and funk, and recreating the nostalgic atmosphere of Brooklyn, New York. The performance features all 13 members from both groups together on screen.[2]
Promotion and performances
The first live performance of "To the Top (feat. DVI)" took place at Siam Music Fest 2022 in Bangkok, Thailand, in December 2022.[7]
On June 26, 2023, during the Tokyo stop of Psychic Fever Live Tour 2023 'P.C.F', DVI joined as surprise guests, and both groups performed the single together in a special 13-member formation.[8]
