Sky Ferreira started her 2016 off with an update on her follow-up to 2013’s Night Time, My Time via her Instagram. The singer’s newest album Masochism, was supposed to be out over the summer but was delayed due to health issues. In her recent Instagram update, Ferreira says “you will hear it in 2016” and explains the delay saying, “I refuse to put out something that isn’t honest… I would have had to put out music that wasn’t true or a message I would not want to put out into the universe.”
Here is an excerpt from her post explaining the Masochism delay:
I also know I’ve been really vague about my music so I appreciate the patience from some of you. I’ve been working on it the whole time & in 2016 you will hear it. I refuse to put out something that isn’t honest. It’s not something that I can force out. If I was to do it any sooner I either would have been compromising myself & anyone listening. I would have had to put out music that wasn’t true or a message I would not want to put out into the universe. As personal as my music is…the thing that lasts longer than I ever will is my actual “work”. I get the rare opportunity to have people listen & connect to it. I personally think with that comes a responsibility of making something that’s still true to me but still can somehow make someone feel better or less lonely. I can’t do that lying through my teeth. Needs to be the pretty/ugly/everything/nothing. For me, music (as a listener) was the most consistent & personal thing in my life that has helped me or healed me in every situation,to some capacity. If I even have a “goal”…it is to help do that for someone.
