Nasty C – Psychic

Nasty C Offers a Glimpse into “Psychic” Territory with New Single

South African rap sensation Nasty C has officially dropped his first solo track of 2025, the intriguing single “Psychic,” released on May 9th. Verified sources confirm that this self-produced anthem sees the “Coolest Kid In Africa” venturing into a blend of rap, rock, and alternative sounds, signaling a potential new sonic direction for the artist.

“Psychic” is described as a confident and flex-heavy track where Nasty C delivers his signature sharp lyricism with a more mature and elevated tone. The song seemingly delves into themes of navigating fame, brushing off distractions, and moving forward with purpose and clarity.
Adding another layer of excitement, the release of “Psychic” aligns with the announcement of the seventh edition of Nasty C’s highly anticipated Ivyson Tour. However, this year introduces a unique and engaging approach. Instead of traditional tour date announcements, Nasty C is utilizing the platform TOORLY to allow fans across Africa to request the tour to their specific cities. The cities with the most requests will have a higher chance of being included in the tour schedule, creating a truly fan-driven experience.
While “Psychic” provides a compelling insight into Nasty C’s current artistic headspace, it remains to be seen whether this single is a precursor to a larger body of work. His last full studio album, “I Love It Here,” was released in September 2023. This new track undoubtedly offers fans a much-awaited taste of what Nasty C has been developing.
The combination of a bold new single and an innovative, fan-centric tour announcement positions this as an exciting new era for Nasty C, further solidifying his influence in the African hip-hop landscape.
