Labrinth, the London-based artist behind Euphoria’s dramatic score, will not be involved in the show’s third season. Despite HBO’s previous confirmation of his return, Labrinth has distanced himself from the show. He recently expressed his frustration with the industry, his record label, and Euphoria in a now-deleted Instagram post, stating ‘I’M DONE WITH THIS INDUSTRY’ and ‘FUCK COLUMBIA. DOUBLE FUCK EUPHORIA.’ Labrinth, whose real name is Timothy Lee McKenzie, also mentioned wanting to have meaningful interactions and not being used by others.
HBO has confirmed Labrinth’s departure from the show but has not provided a reason. Euphoria’s creator, Sam Levinson, praised Labrinth as an ‘incredible collaborator’ who built the foundation of the show’s sound. The third season of Euphoria is set to premiere on April 12 on HBO Max, with a special screening at Coachella. A clip of the first five minutes has been shared, showcasing a markedly different tone from the previous seasons. NME has reached out to Labrinth’s representatives for comment on his departure from the show.
