The upbeat indie-pop dance single, COMPLIC8ED, was produced by Imad Royal;  a new collaborator for the singer/songwriter and one-hell-of a pairing. The self-penned song showcases Taylor’s strong songwriting skills and her maturing growth as a recording artist, while the melodious production perfectly harmonizes Taylor’s euphonious vocals. 

Ensuring the audience will be fully enthralled by the new release, Taylor Grey will bring the single to life through her visual story-telling of complicated love, beautifully captured in the accompanying music video. The official video will be premiering very soon, marking the first official music video release from Taylor since 2017, and making an illustrious statement of what this new year will entail.  

Taylor sheds some insight on the new release, sharing that ”COMPLIC8ED is the response for that all too common of a statement, ‘I don’t want to make things complicated’ but sometimes, you DO want to make things complicated, you want to give a forbidden/unknown love a chance. You want to go for it!” She continues to share on how she started writing COMPLIC8ED, saying “it started after a weird encounter that occurred between me and a friend of mine, who I had a crush on for a while.” and that what sparked the initial inspiration was “Stay Awake” by Dean Lewis, she continues to say, “I was listening to the song while driving (shortly after the friend encounter) and started humming along with a different melody, then it just clicked and I had to pull over to start writing down the song forming inside my head.”

Taylor goes on to talk about her inspiration for the forthcoming music video, stating that “(she) knew the video for COMPLIC8ED had to be something above and beyond,” pulling the video’s inspiration after watching Netflix’s show ‘The End of the F**king World,’ sharing “(she) loved the second season with the shot of ‘Alyssa’ in the wedding dress and her decision to leave the ideal, safe yet boring, guy for her true love. I altered the concept to better fit COMPLIC8ED but I loved the idea of how leaving the ‘perfect guy’ on your wedding day for a bad boy/less-than-perfect relationship as the definition of a complicated situation.”
