Late December saw Australian singer & actor Cody Simpson teamed up with Swedish pop wonders Nairobi to deliver a brand new single ‘HIGH FOREVER’: a tune packed with fresh summer vibes that hit that sweet spot when the tempo intertwines with a heartbeat. The single immediately garnered worldwide media attention and racked up some impressive streams across the globe.
‘HIGH FOREVER’ is about being High on Life and feeling good, so Nairobi and Cody set about creating a video that had the same level of “addiction” that a great interactive game has the power to induce. A video that has a message and one close to the hearts of both artists, clean oceans.
“I love this video because it shares a message important to my heart in a groovy, interactive, modern sense. The animation and storyline are epic and fun to watch I can only hope it inspires viewers to understand that caring for the planet is cool! It’s cool to care.” - Cody Simpson
“We have always supported and admired Cody’s commitment towards clean oceans and got very excited when he proposed the idea of having the music video being based on his efforts to tackle the ongoing global issue of oceanic pollution.” - Nairobi
