\n\t\u201cPEOPLE WILL COMFORTABLE LIE IN THIS INDUSTRY AND STILL CALL THEMSELVES HONEST PEOPLE,\u201d Labrinth wrote in all caps. \u201cSO NO CAP. I DECIDED TO REMOVE WHAT EVER MUSIC I HAD IN IT.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe comments come after news that Oscar winner Hans Zimmer will serve as the sole composer for Euphoria<\/em>\u2019s upcoming eight episodes, which jump forward five years from the previous season. Zimmer had previously been confirmed as a collaborator with Labrinth on the show\u2019s music.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI SPOKE TO HBO AS FAR I KNOW WE ARE COOL,\u201d Labrinth continued. \u201cI LEFT BECAUSE. LAST TRUTH. WHEN I WORK FOR SOMEONE, THEIR VISION IS PARAMOUNT TO ME. BUT I DON\u2019T LET PEOPLE TREAT ME LIKE S\u2014T.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThis is not the first time Labrinth has taken to Instagram to express frustration with the industry. In mid-March, the artist criticized his record label and the HBO series in a now-deleted post that read, \u201cI\u2019M DONE WITH THIS INDUSTRY \/ F\u2014K COLUMBIA \/ DOUBLE F\u2013K EUPHORIA \/ I\u2019M OUT.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tEarlier this week, Euphoria<\/em> creator and executive producer Sam Levinson spoke to Rolling Stone<\/em> about the situation. \u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d Levinson said, adding, \u201cHe\u2019s an incredible collaborator and someone who really built the foundation of the sound of Euphoria.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLevinson also explained why Zimmer is the right choice for season 3 of the series. \u201cOn Euphoria<\/em>, each character\u2019s storyline is like its own film in a way,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n\tLabrinth has served as the lead score producer for Euphoria<\/em> since the show\u2019s debut in 2019. Prior to Euphoria and Columbia Records, he was signed to Simon Cowell\u2019s label Syco, with whom he released two albums. Since his 2010 debut, Labrinth has had seven songs reach the Billboard Hot 100, including one featuring Euphoria<\/em> star Zendaya.<\/p>\n

\n\tLabrinth is set to play the outdoor stage at the 2026 Coachella festival in Saturday (April 11).<\/p>\n
