katie MAC – “Not My Ex” single

“We could blame it on the timing, say that it’s nobody’s fault. Why you gotta blindside me? Three months of leading me on. Now, I don’t know what to call it. All I know is it’s past tense. Twisting up my emotions like we’re doing gymnastics. Now I’m drinking and crying while I’m still in your jacket. I hate the way you’re not my ex ‘cause now you’re living in my head.” – lyrics

‘Not My Ex’ tells a heartfelt tale about a young woman who is a victim of a false relationship. Apparently, she is involved with a guy who isn’t “technically” her official boyfriend, but they are romantically involved. Later, he leaves her in a messed up state of mind, and now, she’s struggling to deal with their breakup that she didn’t see coming. Later, she admits that she can’t be mad because they weren’t together, even though they acted that way.

‘Not My Ex’ contains a troubled relationship-based narrative, ear-pleasing vocals, and tuneful melodies that will resonate well with fans of ALMA, Bea Miller, and  Charlotte Lawrence. The gloomy tune possesses vibrant instrumentation flavored with a moody commercial pop vibration. Furthermore, “Not My Ex” serves as a wonderful presentation of what listeners can expect to hear from katie MAC in the near future.

“Doesn’t mean I miss you less, you’re just not my ex.”

“I wrote ‘Not My Ex’ after a brutal heartbreak that happened this past year. The worst part was that person wasn’t even ‘technically’ my boyfriend. I dropped the demo on TikTok and I was blown away at the response. Making music that is relatable is so important to me and I feel incredibly humbled that so many people already connect to this song.” – katie MAC explained
