Labrinth returns with the release of his surprise new single, “SHUT YOUR DAMN 95.7892.”
The song hints at British music multi-hyphenate’s experience working as an artist in the music industry. Known for shaping the sound of the hit HBO teen drama Euphoria, he has issued a statement confirming his departure as a composer from the series’ third and final season, which had its long-awaited premiere on April 13, 2026 (PH time).
He remarked on being done with the industry, mentioning his record label, Columbia Records, and the series, ahead of his performance at Coachella 2026 and the season premiere this past weekend.
“People will comfortably lie in this industry and still call themselves honest people. So, no cap, I decided to remove whatever music I had in it. I spoke to HBO, as far as I know, we are cool. I left because, last truth, when I work for someone, their vision is paramount to me, but I don’t let people treat me like s**t,” he opens up in an Instagram story.
Back in July 2025, it was announced that Labrinth is teaming up with renowned film and TV composer, Hans Zimmer, for the soundtrack of the series’ third season. Zimmer will now be credited as the sole composer moving forward.
Labrinth’s contribution to the series’ storytelling and world is as impactful as one might think. Making use of sounds that blend electronica, soul, and gospel, tracks such as “All for Us” featuring Zendaya, “Still Don’t Know My Name,” and “Never Felt So Alone” have shaped the series’ sonic identity.
Euphoria debuted on HBO in 2019 and was adapted from the Israeli teen drama miniseries of the same name. It follows high school students dealing with issues of love, addiction, trauma, and identity. The American adaptation has since gained a following for its bold and fearless storytelling, as well as for Zendaya’s performance, which earned her two Emmy Awards.
