IV4, the artist formerly known for her viral pop hits and magnetic online presence, has officially entered a bold new era with her electrifying new single “Still Alive.” Blending grunge, metal, and alternative rock, the track showcases a fearless evolution for the Los Angeles–based artist, born Ivana Petrovic, who has captivated over half a million followers on TikTok with her unapologetic authenticity and dynamic artistry.
“Still Alive” is more than a comeback—it’s a battle cry. “It’s about surviving yourself as much as everything else,” IV4 shares. “It came from a place of raw emotion. The split between anger and vulnerability. When you’re trying to reclaim who you are after losing control for too long. It’s not about being untouched by the chaos, it’s about feeling every part of it and realizing you’re still here, still standing, still alive.” Her words mirror the grit and catharsis of the song itself, a storm of distorted guitars, crashing drums, and soaring vocals that blur the line between pain and power.
The single marks a radical reinvention for IV4, following past successes like “Stroke” featuring Jeremih and “Swimming” featuring Trippie Redd. After years in the pop mainstream, she’s traded glossy production for raw emotion, embracing a sound that channels the spirit of 90s alternative and modern metal alike. It’s an evolution that feels inevitable—a culmination of her journey toward self-ownership and fearless creative freedom.
With “Still Alive,” IV4 continues to prove that rebirth isn’t about leaving your past behind—it’s about transforming it into art. The single’s accompanying video amplifies that energy with striking visuals of defiance and rebirth, capturing IV4’s signature mix of vulnerability and power. It’s a new chapter for a genre-defying artist who’s breaking rules, shattering expectations, and reminding everyone watching that survival can sound like liberation.
