Halsey Unveils Teases New Music: ‘Let’s Start at THE END’
Recently, Halsey sparked curiosity among fans by directing them to a website named ‘For My Last Trick.’ Interestingly, this website’s unveiling coincided with Eminem’s cryptic teaser for his track ‘Houdini’, where he humorously hinted at making his career vanish.
For My Last Trick presents a captivating virtual world reminiscent of the Seventies, filled with nostalgic artefacts and whimsical details. While most elements on the site are decorative, one discovery stands out—a movie ticket stub labelled ‘The End’, leading to a letter from Ashley Frangipane, Halsey’s real identity, posing as a program director at a fictional Los Angeles radio station.

Halsey shares insights into her creative process, setting the stage for an upcoming song release on 4th June. With an enigmatic title suggestion, “Let’s Start at THE END,” she alludes to a deeper narrative behind her music.
Further exploration on the For My Last Trick site unveils a record label called ‘Lesstime Hits and Grooves’, featuring a Spotify playlist titled “?.” This eclectic playlist of 29 songs spans from iconic Seventies artists like Joni Mitchell and Fleetwood Mac to more obscure yet influential names like Jackson C. Frank and Sibylle Baier, hinting at inspirations for Halsey’s upcoming era.
Delving deeper, fans encounter a sticker inviting them to join a mailing list with the message “I Have Something to Tell You.” This hints at forthcoming revelations and exclusive updates as the countdown to the new single’s release intensifies, building anticipation among Halsey’s dedicated followers.
This upcoming release marks a significant moment in Halsey’s musical journey, following the success of their last album produced by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. With a new record deal with Columbia Records and a decade-long stint at Capitol behind them, Halsey’s evolution promises an exciting chapter in their artistic trajectory.
