Labrinth's Appearance on Euphoria rewards Jaw dropping Reactions

disclaimer: there are no spoilers in this article

For someone who has "Never been on American Television as a cast member," Labrinth sure did steal the show last night in Euphoria season 2, episode 3 during his spiritual performance at the end of the episode. Teaming up with Zendaya for the day, Labrinth creates an emotional, spiritual, and heart-wrenching atmosphere, sucking in his audience for the literal "mic drop" at the end of episode three.

After almost an hour of chaos unraveling with the show's other characters in episode three, Labrinth's beautiful ballad with rue leaves every viewer either speechless or in tears. As the creative genius in charge of Euphoria's soundtrack for season 1 and now season 2, Labrinth is responsible for creating music that is not only emotional enough to match the insanity that goes on in the show but also has to immerse the viewer into the scene. By using intense beats and spontaneous backing vocals, Labrinth artistically matches Euphoria's chaotic "aesthetic" with his voice alone.

After the episode aired, Labrinth commented on Twitter about his experience on TV saying, "Never been on American television as a cast member. This was a pretty spiritual experience with the cast and crew that attended - felt like I left my body when we were recording this. Thank you to the @EuphoriaHBO Universe and creators for welcoming me on set."

In my opinion, this is a HUGE win for aspiring artists, especially those wanting to work on tv/movie soundtracks. With an extremely talented man back for season two, I have no doubt Labrinth's soundtrack will continue to impress.
