Watch: 'Boycott Blues' — a viral takedown in verse

At ▶ 0:00, Psyche introduces a new video piece called 'Boycott Blues.' From ▶ 0:21 onward, he performs the full composition, which critiques viewers and panel members who call for boycotts while simultaneously refreshing his pages and monitoring his streams [0:21–0:34]. The piece lampoons the contradiction of claiming he is 'finished' or 'boring' while remaining invested enough to watch for hours [0:44–0:46]. In the second verse [1:06–1:29], Psyche escalates the criticism, targeting what he describes as recycled gossip, inconsistent accusations of wrongdoing, platform drama, and members of his community (including someone named Chris) whom he characterizes as inauthentic or operating with hidden agendas. The piece concludes by juxtaposing real-world threats against the community's investment in livestream drama [1:26–1:29].

The episode appears to function as a direct artistic response to sustained criticism or boycott pressure within Psyche's community. The piece suggests a pattern of performative rejection masking genuine parasocial investment — a theme that continues Psyche's ongoing examination of the boundary between authentic critique and performative online conflict. The work frames call-out culture and platform drama as a form of theater in which the audience's stated disengagement contradicts their actual behavioral investment. This appears to reflect Psyche's broader interest in how communities construct and maintain group identity through shared enemies or controversies, and how the act of 'canceling' or boycotting can itself become a form of engagement that sustains the very thing it claims to reject.
