For Super Whatevr, their latest collaboration with Hoppus is a dream come true.
“Y’all ever dream of creating art with someone you revere and respect? Yeah, I got to do that with Mark Hoppus,” vocalist Skyler McKee says. “Mark was an amazing person to work with because he’s so open to facilitating these conversations, and he’s just a badass songwriter in general.”
The upbeat “Carhartts & Converse” is all about finding love for yourself and not letting comments from others impact you.
“I wanted to make a song about courage and strength amidst people trying to put you down,” McKee continues. “A song about loving yourself for what you’re worth rather than what others say about you. Enjoy the tune in your clothes that make you feel the most confident and don’t let anyone tell you that you’re worth anything less.”
