Capitol Records/Loud Robot artist, Chaz Cardigan, has released a new video for his single “Not OK!”. Echoing the song’s sentiment to exclaim “I’m not okay!” with resolve, this video expresses optimism and levity in a time where we all must find peace in being “not okay.”
Directed by Will Kendrick (Noah Cyrus, Kaskade, Ice Cube, and award-winning sci-fi short film STORM), this video cleverly embraces the conditions uniting us all featuring a variety of shot-at-home setups including clever split screen shots, creative ways to get Chaz and the whole band in one room and 50+ fan submitted videos, culminating in a “club show”.
Of the song, Chaz Cardigan explains, “I started going to therapy last September, and it made me reflect on where certain tendencies of mine came from. ‘Not OK!’ is about realizing that some of these things are just a part of me – and that it’s all right, because everybody’s got something broken about them.”
