R&B duo, dvsn, composed of singer Daniel Daley and GRAMMY Award-winning producer Nineteen85, release their newest single, “What’s Up” ft. Jagged Edge. “What's Up” is the highly anticipated follow-up to the previously released controversial single, “If I Get Caught”. The new track brings the passion and vocals fans have been yearning for, marking the return of the traditional R&B ballad. “What’s Up” is about what ego mixed with regret can lead to. This marks dvsn’s second single release in 2022.
Directed by Andy Madeleine, dvsn drives home the message of “What’s Up” with a nostalgic, late 90’s/early 2000’s inspired visual centered around moments that follow after heartbreak. A continuation of their last video, “What’s Up” opens with flashbacks of Daniel and Drea from “If I Get Caught” setting up what's to come, and ending with Daniel singing in the rain, paying homage to R&B videos of the past. The captivating video has special appearances by Jermaine Dupri and Jagged Edge.
“When we were playing it for the twins from Jagged Edge,” explains Daniel, “they were so passionate about this song being super special and important for R&B, that they decided to bless us with their vocals and trademark harmonies to complete the emotion.”
