In a 2022 interview with Earl Sweatshirt for i-D, Elsesser suggested that he may soon change his ‘Navy Blue’ pseudonym.

“I got extremely depressed when I was eighteen – I was depressed all through my teenage years, and out of that birthed Navy Blue,” he said. “Hopefully, this chapter will end soon and I’ll move on to something different; a different name or something. I eventually want to go by Sage.”
