Your Future Ghost‘s new single, “I’m Like Money,” is an electrifying anthem that champions self-empowerment. The synth-pop/rock duo, featuring Kate Voegele and Michael Grubbs, invites one into a world of unapologetic confidence.
The track’s driving guitar riffs and infectious pop hook is what sets “I’m Like Money” apart. By blending grit and joy it captures the struggle against societal expectations. Kate’s candid perspective shines through, reflecting her experiences as a woman in the music industry. She captures a universal sentiment: the fight to maintain individuality amidst external pressures.
The accompanying music video, directed by Tech, adds a visual punch, transforming the song into a mini horror film where Kate and Michael embody mischievous characters. With a King Midas twist, the imagery reinforces the message: temptation is alluring, but touching might lead to unintended consequences. This clever narrative approach enhances the track’s themes of caution and liberation.
Cultivated through remote collaboration during the pandemic, Your Future Ghost’s dynamic chemistry is palpable in every note. A fusion of big guitars, thundering drums, and striking synths, their fresh sound creates an irresistible energy that pulls one into their unique musical universe.
“I’m Like Money” is a rallying cry for self-acceptance and a refusal to conform. It’s an exhilarating reminder that celebrating oneself is the ultimate form of resistance.
