The future of Euphoria’s signature sound now appears to be in a state of uncertainty in light of a very public message from the longtime composer, Labrinth, as he appears to be distancing himself from the show and the music industry at large. The message, which has since gone viral, appears to have been a profanity-filled statement in which he said he was “done with this industry” and named several targets.
Labrinth’s viral rant raises questions about Euphoria
The message appears to have been a statement unto itself, leaving many in the entertainment world and the Euphoria fandom wondering what prompted it. The moment appears to be a very important one for the show, given that Euphoria Season 3 is set to premiere in just a matter of weeks, on April 12, 2026.
The show’s third season has also been important, as it will mark a first: legendary composer Hans Zimmer working alongside Labrinth on the production of Euphoria’s soundtrack.
The partnership between the two has been highly touted and very exciting. The show’s third season was also a very important one, as Labrinth was just days before the message in Paris, attending the Balenciaga show alongside Euphoria creator Sam Levinson. The show’s creator and Labrinth were pictured at the show alongside ex-Euphoria star Barbie Ferreira. So the question is whether there are behind-the-scenes tensions.
The situation has taken an even more interesting turn in that Emmy Award-winning makeup artist Kirsten Sage Coleman appears to have commented on Labrinth’s statement and said, “I understand. You aren’t alone.”
That brief response sparked further rumors of internal conflicts during the long-delayed production of Season 3. The series has already experienced a tumultuous production phase, marked by script rewrites and cast schedule changes. The cast includes an ensemble cast headed by Zendaya.
Since the premiere of Euphoria in 2019, Labrinth’s unique blend of gospel, electronic, and orchestral sounds has been recognized as a significant element of the show’s overall atmosphere. Labrinth’s song “All for Us,” featuring Zendaya, even earned the artist a Primetime Emmy Award.
In unrelated news, Labrinth released his 2026 album “Cosmic Opera: Act I,” which features lyrics about artist burnout and the commercialization of art. Some fans speculate that the album may have been a response to the music industry.
For now, there have been no official announcements from HBO. According to sources, however, a significant portion of the Season 3 soundtrack may already have been finalized. This means Labrinth’s contributions may still be included in the initial episodes of the series despite his apparent falling out.
With the premiere just around the corner, the question on everyone’s mind is whether the iconic sounds of Euphoria will remain the same or be entirely replaced under Zimmer’s reign.
