Sigrid Won’t Let A Narcissist Kill Her Vibe On New Song ‘High Five’

there's a good chance, you remember Sigrid from her buzzy 2016 single “Don’t Kill My Vibe” (and if not, familiarize yourself ASAP!). In case you haven’t been keeping up with the rising Norwegian pop star since then, a lot has happened, namely the continuous release of a brand new EP, Raw.


Sigrid has been steadily unveiling the EP’s new songs each week or so, starting with the unapologetic title track, followed by the stripped-back “I Don’t desire to Know.” On Friday (April 13), she continued the trend with “High Five,” a candid tell-off aimed at an egomaniac. “Ooh, they keep saying you're the perfect / You ask and so they mention yeah / Ooh, any time once you add up all that's left / The high five is all you got,” Sigrid sings on the monstrous chorus, which may be her biggest one since “Strangers.”





In a interview with Annie Mac upon the song’s release, Sigrid explained that “High Five” is about “the kind of person that I never wish to be,” and said it addresses “the importance of these relationships where you both dare to be totally trustworthy together, rather than exchanging superficial high fives.”


Next up, the 21-year-old kicks off a summer full of festival appearances with her Coachella debut. In the meantime, keep an eye out for those last two tracks from Raw — all signs point to the EP being a must-listen.
