KhakiKid takes aim at traditional masculinity on new single ‘Must Be A Man’
Dublin-born alternative artist KhakiKid returns with ‘Must Be A Man’, a sharp-witted new single that pokes fun at the expectations and contradictions surrounding traditional masculinity. Delivered with his trademark irreverence and humour, the track takes aim at the unwritten rules men are often expected to follow, finding the absurdity in behaviours and attitudes commonly associated with being a man.
Produced by Louis Stanley Isaacs, ‘Must Be A Man’ pairs infectious production and uplifting melodies with KhakiKid’s candid, characteristically playful lyricism.
The release arrives alongside an accompanying music video directed by David Willis. Shot in Dublin, the visual uses a cast of actors to bring the track’s narrative to life, with KhakiKid also making an appearance.
Arriving during Movember, the single offers a timely, tongue-in-cheek take on a subject that often invites more serious discussion. Rather than losing himself in the contradictions, KhakiKid approaches them with personality and unpredictability, allowing the humour to do much of the talking.
Having already teased the track during his recent sold-out UK and Ireland tour, KhakiKid now brings one of his most anticipated releases to date to listeners. With rumours of a debut album on the horizon, ‘Must Be A Man’ also offers a taste of what could be ahead in the year to come.
