We dare you to name a more Shakespearean pop lyric than “her heart will rage for your leisure.” Culled from the second verse of Vitesse X’s new single “way i luv,” the line contrasts an urgent sense of devotion with the New York artist’s pillowy production, tugging the track between ethereal synths and the crushing realities of romance. Vitesse X dropped the tune earlier this month (June 5), describing it as a “plea to protect the heart that doesn’t know how to protect itself” as she entrusts it to a lover. Not quite a lullaby, nor a red-hot declaration, “way i luv” seems to find solace in its unassuming nature. Tune in below.
