Labrinth has declared he's "done" with the music industry and taken aim at his record label, Columbia Records, and HBO series Euphoria.
In an explosive statement from his notes app on his smartphone, shared on his Instagram, he fumed: “I’M DONE WITH THIS INDUSTRY.
“F*** COLUMBIA. DOUBLE F*** EUPHORIA. I’M OUT. THANK YOU AND GOOD NIGHT X.”
The 37-year-old star offered no context for the outburst, leaving fans guessing.
Labrinth released his most recent studio album, Cosmic Opera: Act I, via Columbia in January.
As lead composer on Euphoria, he collaborated with actress Zendaya on All For Us, which closed out the season-one finale, and I’m Tired, used during a major Rue [Zendaya] storyline in season two.
All For Us was awarded an Emmy for Outstanding Original Music And Lyrics.
Labrinth also created Never Felt So Alone, later released in an alternate version featuring Billie Eilish, which helped broaden the show’s musical reach beyond its core audience. Labrinth even appeared briefly on screen in season two as a church singer, underscoring how central his music has become to the series’ overall identity.
Other notable songs include the viral track Mount Everest.
Labrinth hitting out at the HBO teen drama comes around a month before season three airs on April 12.
Legendary composer Hans Zimmer, 68, was hired alongside Labrinth to work on the score for the third series.
At the time, Labrinth said: "Another chapter in the Euphoria universe! So great to join Hans, one of my heroes in film score, and bring some new magic to this new season."
Zimmer said: "Labrinth's music has shaped the show's identity and I'm looking forward to contributing to the ongoing story and helping shape this new season through music."
