Kenyan-American musician KayCyy has released a new single, titled “Roll The Dice.” The track is part of his collaboration with French DJ Gesaffelstein. The duo’s joint EP, TW2052 will be released later this month on May 26, 2023. Six additional songs will accompany “Roll The Dice,” and the tracklist was shared yesterday via KayCyy’s Twitter. The artist also worked with Gesaffelstein on the 2022 EP, TW20 50. The critically-acclaimed three-song EP KayCyy released two singles in November of 2022, “I Love Myself” and “Who Else Would It Be.”

KayCyy called the project with Gesaffelstein KayCyy teased the new song in April, playing the majority of it in an Instagram Live. He later posted a photo of two dice on Twitter, hinting at the song’s title. He asked fans for a certain number of comments in exchange for a release date. Fans quickly reached their goal and he revealed the song would come out on May 12.

The song sees KayCyy comparing a lover to oxygen, as he sings about how he only wants to focus on them. It contains themes of two people only needing one another, as nothing else matters but them. Mellow, rhythmic bass defines the track, along with KayCyy’s smooth vocals. The accompanying music video takes on a similarly simplistic, futuristic tone.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Roll the dice, close your eyes
Trust the time, we’ll be fine
You and I, we’ll survive
Anything (Anything), side by side (Side by side)

[Verse 1]
Jumpin’ off the top rope (Top rope)
Yeah, smoke came out our nostrils (Our nose)
Twenty-thousand up in bottles (Yeah)
Finish it all before tomorrow (Yeah-yeah)

[Pre-Chorus]
Roll the dice, close your eyes (Come get love)
Come get love, come get love (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Together we can make time stop, it’s all about us (All about us)
Selfish shit, I don’t mind
Long as it’s about mine’s
Roll the dice (Ooh)
Close your eyes (Ooh)
Every time (Every time), we turned out fine (Turned out fine)
Turned out fine

[Bridge]
A second without you feel like I’m missin’ all my oxygen
Standin’ on our side, I’ll never mix you with the opposite
Hit you at the same fuckin’ time every night like, “Pull up, pull up”
Hit you at the same fuckin’ time every night like, “Pull up, pull up, pull up”

[Pre-Chorus]
Roll the dice, close your eyes
Come get love, come get love (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Together we can make time stop, it’s all about us (It’s all about us)
Selfish shit, I don’t mind (I don’t mind)
Long as it’s about mine’s (Long as it’s about mine’s)
Roll the dice (Ooh)
Close your eyes (Ooh)
Every time (Every time), we turned out fine (Turned out fine)
Roll the dice (Ooh)
Close your eyes (Ooh)
Every time (Every time), we turned out fine (Turned out fine)

[Outro]
Roll ’em, roll ’em
Roll ’em, roll ’em
Roll ’em, roll ’em
Therapy, roll ’em
Too soon
