‘i can’t get high’ contains a relatable storyline, ear-pleasing vocals, and catchy melodies that will resonate well with fans of Mothica, Billie Eilish, Bea Miller, UPSAHL, and Kailee Morgue. The likable tune possesses adrenaline-rushing instrumentation flavored with an edgy alternative-rock vibration. Furthermore, “i can’t get high” follows hot on the heels of Royal’s “bad kids” single featuring Yoshi Flower, and her “get a grip” EP, which features her viral hit “Overwhelmed.” The EP spent 22 weeks on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart and has accumulated over 101 million streams online.

“I definitely feel like I’m two people living in one body, where I can just slip at the drop of a dime and become a totally different person.” – Royal & the Serpent stated

Royal & the Serpent made her debut in 2017. She earned acclaim for her self-released singles such as “MMXX” and “Salvador Dali.” Also, for “Bad Bad Blood,” which was featured in the Season 6 trailer for ABC’s ‘How To Get Away With Murder.’ In each piece of music she shares with the world, Royal reveals the wild duality at the heart of her artistry. Her music speaks to the incredible power of embracing your true nature in all its outrageous complexity. A Gemini to the core, she’s passionate but pensive, sensitive but self-possessed enigmatic. However, she’s an open book when it comes to exposing what’s inside her mind. Also, she identifies as a “sweet sunshine angel” (i.e., the Royal persona) and a “freaky devil maniac” (the Serpent).
