British artist and consciousness revolutionary, NEO 10Y (aka Nik Thakkar) has debuted their new single Vapid Prophecy, dubbed “the soundtrack to a spiritual revolution” – an action packed, celestial, genre-fusing, multi-dimensional trip with introspective and intricate cosmic lyricism that NEO 10Y is becoming well known for.
Vapid Prophecy follows the release of the highly acclaimed ‘Shortcut To World Peace’ and showcases the epic prowess and presence of NEO 10Y. The ‘Stan Yourself’ singer has been actively performing the song on electric guitar for the last 10 months, from raves to the Roundhouse sharing their artistry and engaging live shows for a spiritual revolution. Their message is designed to help manifest a protopian dimension of peace on earth through love energy.
Vapid Prophecy is produced by NEO 10Y, SBO9 and Auden.
The video serves luscious cinematography with jaw-dropping and athletic performances by NEO 10Y with a psychedelic edit, bringing their “spiritual baddie” for world peace aesthetic to life with a structured corset and bikini giving main pop goddex energy.
The video is created by NEO 10Y with cinematography from Blue and OZAT and additional styling by Bby Milo.
NEO 10Y makes cerebral and subversive, consciousness expanding songs with influence of Eastern Philosophies of oneness, also paralleled in their artist name which constitutes the expansiveness of the universe. Hailing from London with Indian ancestry, their powerful and thought provoking songs and visuals feature intricate narratives and conscious lyricism which decode the duality of humxn existence.
Their live shows are 360º immersive experiences which have taken place at concert venues, art galleries and festivals in London, Europe, and the USA. They recently played the main stage at UK Black Pride at the Roundhouse and for Billboard magazine in New York City.
