The heavy new song “It’s My Fault” by Willow Smith, which she released recently, is accompanied with a visually striking performance video shot by Dana Trippe. It is referred to as “the first taste” of an upcoming album in a press release.
The newest from Willow sees her relying once more on a pop-punk vibe after the release of “Purge.” But this time, Smith’s impassioned contribution is where she turns to grunge to express her concerns.
“It’s all too often in tender emotional states we try to blame our hurts on other people,” said Willow in a statement. “Even though none of us are perfect, in some capacity it’s us who allow ourselves to get into situations that don’t serve our highest purpose. ‘it’s my fault’ explores what it’s like to hold ourselves equally accountable for the emotional pain we feel while also allowing ourselves to be human and fully process ALL of our feelings without shame.”
