Halsey recently opened up about why she has not been releasing new music.
“I can’t make an album right now,” the 30-year-old singer-songwriter revealed to Zane Lowe in an interview. “I’m not allowed to."
The “Closer” singer hinted that her record label was preventing her from working on a new album due to the commercial performance of her most recent effort, “The Great Impersonator”, which was released in October 2024.
“That’s the reality, because ‘The Great Impersonator’ didn't perform the way they thought it was going to.”

Halsey, whose real name is Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, asserted that it was unrealistic to expect all of her works to perform the same way as her 2020 album “Manic”.
“If I'm being honest with you, the [Great Impersonator] album sold 100,000 f--king copies first week,” she continued. “That's a pretty big first week, especially for an artist who hasn't had a hit in a long time. The tour is the highest selling tour of my entire career, but they want ‘Manic’ numbers from me… I can't do that every single time.”
