Halsey has responded to recent fan backlash following the release of her new single, Lucky. The pop star took to social media to address the criticism head-on, expressing her thoughts on the mixed reactions and defending her artistic choices.
The controversy began shortly after her new song, Lucky dropped on July 26, with some fans expressing disappointment and voicing their opinions on various platforms. The singer posted on Tumblr, acknowledging the feedback and sharing her perspective.
Halsey wrote in her long post that her fans are more mean to her than any person in the world. The singer revealed how it’s hard to be in an inhuman space that is entirely “devoid of any kindness, sympathy, patience.” The ‘Without Me’ Artist feared that something like this would happen and wrote that now she “regrets coming back” and wants to “crawl back in a hole.”
Lucky inserts Britney Spear’s hit song by the same name she introduced in 2000. When a fan asked Halsey if the Princess of Pop had been involved in her latest music, the Grammy Awards nominee acknowledged saying that she wouldn’t have dreamt of doing it without Spears’ blessing.
Lucky, which features a blend of pop and indie elements, marks a notable shift from Halsey’s previous releases. The song’s introspective lyrics and mellow production have sparked a conversation about the evolving nature of her music. Halsey has always been known for her raw and authentic storytelling, and Lucky continues this tradition, albeit in a different musical context.
Despite the initial backlash, the Bad At Love singer has gained traction and found its audience. Many fans have praised the song for its lyrical depth and Halsey’s vocal performance.
With Lucky, Halsey continues to challenge expectations and push the boundaries of her artistry. Her willingness to address fan concerns openly and honestly underscores her dedication to her craft and her fans.
