Electronic | Krysta Youngs Releases Moving Music Video For ‘Mental Breakdown’

Posted by VMan on February 18, 2022

Krysta Youngs has unleashed a video that’s captivating for many reasons all in one go. The setting, direction of photography, the focal point of the video (Krysta Youngs herself,) all have been well-nurtured. The tending to each of these areas has now led to a well-interpreted experience from the viewers end.

The story at hand is something that’s real and palatable. Verses share a painful dialog that feels like something which would rattle in the brain. An internal tussle with ‘woulda, coulda, shoulda,’ it being hard to let go and hard not to explore hindsight. Everything points to a relationship that went sour with the lead role, who is now put into a episode that is like a bottomless pit.

“Mental Breakdown” is a song about feeling all the emotions that come with loving someone who isn’t right for you. It’s the realization that love has a life of its own, it breaks you down & spits you out … but only if you let it.
– Krysta Youngs

There’s moments of energetic self-reflection along with bed-ridden solitutude, Krysta Youngs going through the phases of denial, anger, depression, bargaining, with acceptance no where in sight.

On the audio end, a quirky and charming deep house/dance pop template plays out like a soundtrack to the video at hand. The message of the lyrics syncing up beautifully to the eye-catching moments going on.
