Just two years since Grimes signed a deal with Columbia Records, the artist has parted ways with the label, having not released an album in that time.
This week, Grimes gave permission for her voice to be used in AI songs, tweeting, "I have no label and no legal bindings." This was a slightly surprising statement, given that she signed with the major label just a couple years ago.
Billboard has now confirmed that Grimes has indeed parted ways with Columbia, citing a source from the label as well as the singer's manager Daouda Leonard.
In the time since Grimes signed with Columbia, she declared music a "side-quest" in her life, but also seemed to experience a renewed interest in making a new album. She has been working on an album called BOOK 1.
