Tate McRae Reclaims Her Spotlight with Provocative New Single “It’s OK I’m OK”

In her latest release, “It’s OK I’m OK,” Tate McRae once again proves that she’s not afraid to push the boundaries of pop music. The risqué video accompanying the single finds McRae confidently strutting through the streets of New York City, embracing both vulnerability and power, all while reclaiming a voice that resonates beyond heartbreak.

After wrapping the U.S. leg of her Think Later tour at Madison Square Garden, McRae’s return to the music scene feels like a statement — she’s not done evolving, and she’s certainly not afraid to get personal. “It’s OK I’m OK” teases the emotional tug-of-war found in relationships, with McRae’s nonchalant delivery signaling her detachment from a romantic rival. The song, layered with cutting lyrics and infectious beats, cleverly hands off her “sloppy seconds,” as McRae asserts that she’s better off having moved on.

The music video, which flirts with visual boundaries (her birthday suit appearance is tastefully pixelated), is more than just shock value — it’s a metaphor for emotional bareness and self-assurance. The visuals echo McRae’s journey from vulnerable ex-girlfriend to someone who’s decisively comfortable in her own skin, both literally and figuratively. Returning to her dance roots only amplifies the intensity, showing that she’s in full control of both her body and her narrative.

While “It’s OK I’m OK” feels like a natural progression from her previous hits like “Exes” and “Greedy,” McRae’s ability to balance mainstream pop appeal with deeply personal, often raw emotional undertones is what makes her stand out. She’s not just rehashing relationship drama — she’s delivering it with edge, precision, and self-awareness.

For fans who’ve followed McRae’s meteoric rise, the song serves as a reminder that she’s far from complacent. While she’s been out promoting and touring for Think Later, it’s clear this new single hints at more material in the pipeline, potentially a third studio album by the end of the year.

As McRae heads to Australia and New Zealand, where her rumored beau The Kid Laroi hails from, the buzz around her next moves only grows louder. Whether “It’s OK I’m OK” signals a new era for McRae remains to be seen, but one thing is clear — she’s here to stay, and she’s doing it on her own terms.
