[IV](https://www.instagram.com/x.ivv/) s Instagram bio reads “I make fire ass music,” which holds true for each one of her releases. You may have seen IV from her modeling work with major brands, or maybe you’ve heard her 2018 debut song “Because Of Me” — either way, it’s hard not to fall in love with her down-to-earth, vibrant personality.
The Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter arrives with a sweet, sultry voice, pairing it with tongue-in-cheek lyrics inspired by real-life experiences. Now, she teams up with [Trippie Redd](https://www.instagram.com/trippieredd/?hl=en) for their collaborative single titled “Swimming,” exclusively premiering the coinciding visual on Flaunt.
[IV](https://www.instagram.com/x.ivv/) and [Trippie Redd](https://www.instagram.com/trippieredd/?hl=en) recently went viral online, with the latter tattooing the former’s buttocks for the world to see. If that’s not love, we don’t know what is. The two have been rumored to be dating as of lately, but we’ll let the visual speak for itself.
IV states, “‘Swimming’ is a fly ass song, that’s how I feel right now in life. It’s as though I’m moving through this shit effortlessly. I put in work but in life, when it’s made for you, shit works easily. I wanted a song that represented how fly and successful I feel, but also something that people could turn up to and be in the same vibe as me. Getting Trippie to feature on it is another look at a young fly successful artist who’s in the same headspace.”
Directed by Edgar Esteves, the cinematic “Swimming” music video sees IV jumping from set to set, starring as a belly-dancing tarot reader to a barbie doll in hot pink to an inmate in an orange jumpsuit behind bars. Paving the way for Trippie to enter the scene and lay down his fire verse, the 23-year-old proves she’s got what it takes to hang with the elites in the industry.
“Swimming” serves as IV’s first release since signing to Warner Records in October 2019, following the success of her previous single [“Angel.”](https://open.spotify.com/album/2KHxsNYxSQIi3cZDjubHbQ?si=SstUp9GhTXmjAV2c0vrN8w)
