Zendaya and Labrinth Release New Song for Euphoria Soundtrack
Many tears were shed from the Euphoria season finale Sunday night, but viewers can’t get over the Zendaya and Labrinth collaboration titled “I’m Tired.”
The pair first collaborated on the song “All For Us,” which was featured at the end of the season 1 finale in 2019. Labrinth was the main composer of the soundtrack for the first season, and fans were happy to hear his and Zendaya’s voice at the end of last night’s episode.

The soulful ballad was originally featured as a Labrinth solo in season 2 episode 4 and quickly garnered streams on all platforms. However, that didn’t last long as the song was swiftly taken off streaming services.
Many viewers were left upset, but the British singer assured that something much bigger was on its way. In a tweet, Labrinth included a video of him and Zendaya in the studio with the caption, “In her own words, we got something even better for y’all, that was just a taste.”

No one is surprised at Zendaya’s singing talent. To date, the Spider-Man actress released one self-titled album in 2013. She also displayed her singing abilities in the soundtrack for The Greatest Showman. We can only hope for more music from the Oakland native.
The eventful and emotional ending to the second season leaves fans asking one big question: What’s next for Euphoria? While the series has been confirmed for a third season, we won’t be seeing our favorite (and least favorite) characters until 2024.
This is partly because producer and star Zendaya will be booked and busy for the rest of the year leading into 2023. She has been cast as the lead in a Ronnie Spector biopic and will also be on the set of Dune: Part 2.
