Yung Bae: It's turn up vibes with Felly, Khary and YOG$ in the 'Too Cool To Be Lonely' music video

Tired of sitting down? Of course not but why not move around and get your body catching vibes? Leave it up to Yung Bae, Felly, Khary and YOG$ to deliver those turn up motions with their ‘Too Cool To Be Lonely’ music video.

It’s all you could want and some more from a fun song and a super vintage-approached music video.

Dance-pop maestro Yung Bae continues the journey toward his highly anticipated new album Groove Continental: Side B — out October 6th — with the single and music video “Too Cool To Feel This Lonely.” Co-created with multi-platinum producer Diamond Pistols and Quinn XCII collaborator YOG$, it’s an exhilarating blend of funk and hip-hop as Felly and Khary deliver dance-ready verses atop sizzling production. The single comes on the heels of “Awesome Ways” with funk legend Nile Rodgers. On their collaboration, Rodgers enthused, “This shit is hot and a perfect example of how I work with an artist's melodies & harmonies to develop the concept!” It also follows the acclaimed lead single “Body Talk” with Mayer Hawthorne  — “a dynamic piece of funk-pop” according to Sheesh — which initially set the stage for the brilliant Groove Continental: Side B.

Yung Bae also recently announced a fall 2023 North American tour in support of his forthcoming album. Winding across the continent from Washington, DC, to Vancouver, BC, the tour will include a particularly anticipated stop at Elsewhere on October 7th in Brooklyn, NY. The buzzing New York date — a full venue takeover by Yung Bae and album release party for Groove Continental: Side B — will feature support from Eden Prince, Ty Sunderland, Engelwood, and performances from local drag queens to round out the celebratory night. Tickets for all of Yung Bae’s tour dates are available here.

Yung Bae explains his newest “This track is another one of my absolute favorites from the album. It feels like something you would play at a house party. It all started out with a sample that Felly and YOG$ went in on. After that me and Diamond Pistols got our hands on it and flipped it into what it is now! Then Felly and Khary laid down vocals and it felt so right.”

Diamond Pistols recalls the single “started with Bae playing me the sample idea that ultimately became the backbone for the song. We had the idea to flip it into a 4 on the floor housey beat, and the song was just an instrumental for a long time until Felly hopped on and made it what it is!”

Khary adds, ”YOG$ reached out to me with this idea he worked on with Yung Bae. It honestly wasn’t my normal style of music but I took it as a challenge. The phrase ‘I’m too cool to feel this lonely’ was the first thing that came to my mind and it felt like something you could live by. The rest came easily.”

A pioneering sampler, producer, and songwriter, Yung Bae touches on everything from vaporwave to funk, Japanese city pop to electropop. After making a mark via a major label, he jumped back to the independent world where he could chase down his wildest creative ideas—including a slinky nautical journey for 2022’s Groove Continental: Side A featuring Channel Tres, EARTHGANG, Jon Batiste, and others.
