If you thought being a “one hit wonder” was the end of the world, think again! Benson Boone is embracing the haters in his new music video for “Mr. Electric Blue,” where he leans into the criticism like a pro. The video kicks off with Boone sauntering into “Industry Plant Records” donned in a t-shirt that reads “one hit wonder.” Coupled with his tongue-in-cheek attitude, he turns the negative buzz around him into a comedic goldmine.
As the storyline unfolds, Boone hilariously juggles odd jobs—dog walking, mowing lawns for “Auto-Tune Trimmers,” and even selling sparkly jumpsuits—all in a desperate bid to pay back his faux-label $10 million debt. Spoiler alert: He raises a grand total of $168. It’s ironic, clever, and all too relatable, poking fun at the struggles of maintaining fame in a digital age where everyone feels entitled to have an opinion.
In the end, his agent has a plan that’s as wild as it is entertaining, involving selling Boone’s entire music catalog to movie theaters and fast food chains. Picture it: Benson Boone, the most overplayed artist in the world. As the narrative blends humor and reality checks, it invites us to laugh at the absurdity of life while keeping a positive outlook, proving that sometimes it pays off to poke fun at yourself amidst the chaos. Have you ever found a funny side to your biggest critic? Let’s hear those stories!
