Canada, Toronto based duo $VN (pronounced “Seven”) debut their new single “Took It Too Far” on HWING. The duo made up of Mississauga natives nyXsun and SAGS showcase their artistic craft and versatility as multifaceted performers.
Delivering memorable rhymes over a trap-infused instrumental laced with woozy guitar rhythms and synths, the empowering chorus by SAGS and emphatic verses by nyXsun showcases the pair’s lyrical prowess – detailing their approach to attaining success while remaining unfazed by their haters.
“The track started in the hands of our good friend and collaborator, Shubs. He sent the beat over to us and we immediately fell in love with the production style. It has a sinister tone which invoked a lot of pent-up anger and aggression in us. We got on the mic and let our emotions run free”, nyXsun explains.
“We mainly wanted to capture the fact that we’ve moved on from our naive beginnings in the music industry, and now we’re in our own lane – avoiding distractions and grinding to attain our dreams. The outro was added by us late in the production process after we felt like the track needed to end on a fierce and energetic note. We’re thrilled with how it came out and we’re excited for our fans worldwide to vibe with the song!”
For 2020, $VN set their focus on crafting a rich soundscape, and “Took It Too Far” is an indication of their astute musical talent.
