Inspired by a renewed sense of self, the grounding presence of her daughter, and a redefined relationship with her artistry, the song captures what it feels like to finally think and create without interference. Unfiltered by outside expectations, Karlie channels clarity, self-trust, and liberation into a track that feels both intimate and resolute.
What is the story behind the release?
The release of “Outta My Head” marks a pivotal turning point in Karlie McKinnon’s creative journey. Following a deeply transformative period that shaped her 2025 full-length album Part-Time Honey, the song arrives as a statement of emergence — the moment after survival, when healing turns into ownership.
Recorded at June Audio alongside collaborators who fully honored her vision, the track represents shedding old layers and stepping forward with confidence.
It’s a declaration of self-possession, signaling not just a new chapter, but a more fearless, fully realized version of Karlie as both artist and individual.
