December 15, 2025Dec 15 Yungblud Admits He ‘Lost Himself’ and ‘Risked It All’December 15, 2025By Amy PalmerIt’s been a pretty good year for Yungblud – his career trajectory has been on a constant upward climb. It hasn’t all been plain sailing though. He’s navigated the loss of one of his idols, Ozzy Osbourne, and also dealt with the trappings of new-found fame and figuring out who he is. In a new interview, the musician opened up about these challenges – and how a fellow singer recently reached out to him.Before releasing his most recent album, Idols, Yungblud admits he was a bit too eager to please the masses. He told Billboard UK: “I completely lost myself and I was listening to the world and critics of my work too much.”He added, of his most recent work: “I really risked it all. I thought, ‘If people don’t like this one, then maybe it’s the end. When you’re a young artist it can be hard to take criticism, but now you’ve got to laugh at it.”His record label is definitely pleased about his new success. While he once had to fight to put out music he loved, they’re apparently now all about the “rock thing.” He explained: “My record label is now like, ‘Yeah man, got to keep on the rock thing!’ It’s like, f*ck off. It’s not a ‘thing’. It’s what I’ve grown up around.”Yungblud also told the publication that Robbie Williams recently reached out to him.He said: “He wrote me this letter when it really needed to come. He related himself to me, saying that he knew what it was like to be a 28-year-old who was trying to figure out who they were, while also dealing with a million opinions about what he could be or never be. People don’t give Robbie the credit for his mind and the way he sees things.”The rocker had to cancel tour dates last month following advice from doctors.Reality TeaYungblud Admits He ‘Lost Himself’ and ‘Risked It All'Singer Yungblud has a vulnerable moment and reveals he "lost himself" and "risked it all" during his career in the past.
