YUNGBLUD Releases New Song “Hated”
British singer-songwriter Dominic Harrison, aka YUNGBLUD released a new song “Hated” on August 24, 2023.
The song released in partnership with the American Society for the Positive Care of Children, a nonprofit dedicated to preventing and raising awareness of child maltreatment and the lasting trauma born from neglect and abuse.
The track is the follow-up to “Lowlife”, which was released back in June.
It was written by Dominic Harrison, Paul Meany, Jake Torrey, and Adam Warrington. Produced by Paul Meany.
The accompanying music video was directed by Sandeep & Chadrick.
YUNGBLUD shared on social media, “When I was seven years old I was molested by a doctor. I never told anyone until I told my producer when this song started to come out. This is the most personal thing I've ever released. That's not to say it's soft or gentle. Far from it. It's a rallying cry and an exposition of the soul.”- He continued, “The song is ultimately about freeing yourself from bad experiences and trauma. Finding inner strength. acknowledging your past, accepting the pain and having the courage not to let it define your future. You've got to kill somebody to be somebody to be who you want to be, You've got to hit rock bottom and live through all of the shit nobody believes. You've got to hurt some people but first some people will thirst on watching you bleed. And thats when you know that you've made it. When you're hated.”
