Talked to my label tonight after my tiktok tantrum.

They said ‘we’ll see!’ tell me again how I’m making this up, Halsey, Twitter.

I’m way too established to stir something like this up for no reason or resort to this as a marketing tactic but now I’m in too deep so there’s no going back, Halsey, Twitter.

I don’t know what to do because I told the truth about what’s happening and now I STILL don’t have a release date AND some of you think I’m lying about this whole fiasco, Halsey, Twitter.
