Hot off her electrifying performance opening for UK R&B star, Sasha Keable, rising South African sensation Nanette releases her captivating new single “I’m Not Psycho” on all streaming platforms.
Produced with cinematic tension and lyrical precision, “I’m Not Psycho” dismantles the “crazy ex” narrative by exposing the manipulator’s ultimate fear – losing control of the monster they created. Nanette’s lyrics “Look what you’ve made me… You don’t get to leave me!” capture the thrilling metamorphosis of a woman who refuses to let her perpetrator walk away unscathed from the monster they created.
Like Harley Quinn the protagonist isn’t insane, she’s a PhD holder branded a ‘crazy ex’ by the very lover who demanded her transformation, then fled the consequences. The haunting chorus, “I’m not psycho, I’m in love, I’m on drugs…” reveals that the true addiction is not to the man but to the warped reflection he engineered.
“When someone tries to define your sanity, sometimes the most radical act is to lean into their accusations – but on your own terms,” says Nanette.
More of a psychological thriller than a break-up ballad, “I’m Not Psycho” celebrates the terrifying beauty of a woman who weaponizes the same narrative meant to silence her.
