Musician Labrinth says he is 'done with this industry' and hits out at Euphoria
The British star composed the music for the first two seasons of HBO's popular teen TV series.
www.bbc.comThe latest news is that Labrinth will not be involved in Euphoria season 3, and HBO has confirmed his music will not appear in the new season. He said he removed his music from the show after feeling mistreated, while HBO had previously said he would return and collaborate with Hans Zimmer.[1][2][7][9]
What changed
Reports from April 2026 say the split became public after Labrinth posted that he was “done” with the industry and criticized his treatment around the show. Coverage from BBC and Rolling Stone says the season is still moving forward, but without his soundtrack contribution. HBO did not give a detailed explanation beyond confirming his absence.[2][3][7][9][10]
Why it matters
Labrinth’s music was a defining part of Euphoria’s sound in the first two seasons, so his exit is a notable shift for season 3. The new season is also expected to feature Hans Zimmer, suggesting a different musical direction.[3][2]
