(Photo by: Nathaniel Wood | download) Sean Van Vleet, who records under the name Blame My Youth, has dropped a new track, the anthemic “Okay With It.” It marks another earworm of a song that he has recorded with #1 Billboard producer Joey Moi, and their 5th since Van Vleet launched Blame My Youth in 2020. Of “Okay With It” he says, “The song is a shot of nostalgia for me. I’m someone who is usually pretty wrapped up in the moment or the future. But this song, for me, is a nod to a bunch of scatter brained memories, and about how a lot of these little moments came together to make you who you are. I guess when we were free flowing verses, and allowing the past to surface on the mic, I had everything come up from my obsession with naughty by nature’s OPP as a kid (I still to this day can’t get it outta my head) to getting messed up with some best friends. And in recalling it all, at the heart of this song, for me, it’s about being okay with getting high on the past, and being cool if the world spins off with out you for a while.” The video was shot by Max Moore (Jxdn, All Time Low) and features Blame My Youth’s full band. Listen to the track here and watch the clip here:
