It marks the third installment in Psychic Fever’s ongoing series of Thai collaboration songs. [1] The lyrics were written by Scott Kozdra, Botcash, F.Hero, M-Pee, J Jazzsper, Jr. Bubblegum, and Zero (Yves & Adams), while the music was composed by Scott Kozdra, Botcash, F.Hero, M-Pee, J Jazzsper, and Jr. Bubblegum.

Background

From the summer of 2022 to early 2023, shortly after their debut, Psychic Fever traveled to Thailand together with Ballistik Boyz, who are also under LDH. In partnership with the local label High Cloud Entertainment, led by F.Hero, they underwent an extended training and promotional period lasting about six months. [3]

Regarding this release, the group commented that "after working in Thailand over the past year, a long-awaited collaboration finally came true." They also stated that the song was created with the worldview of the live project "Battle of Tokyo"—where the song was first performed—in mind, aiming to reflect the cultures of both Japan and Thailand. [4]

It is the third collaboration with Thai artists by Psychic Fever, following the previous releases "To the Top" featuring DVI and "Fire" featuring Sprite. [5]

Composition

The song features an up-tempo and danceable hip-hop sound interwoven with unique Thai ethnic musical elements. [4] According to the group, the title "Spice" symbolizes keywords like "hot," "spicy," and "cool," which are sprinkled throughout the lyrics. [4]

Promotion and performances

The song was first performed live at the multimedia project Battle of Tokyo ~Code of Jr.Exile~, produced by LDH, prior to its official release. [6]
