Halsey has taken to Instagram to express her feelings about some alternative radio stations considering her “too pop” to play.

It stems from her song “11 Minutes” with YUNGBLUD and Travis Barker not being considered an alternative track to some.

“Weird that some ALT stations are calling 11 Minutes “too pop” when I’m tuning into their stations and hearing full blown EDM records these days,” she begins. “Forget that 11 Minutes has more live guitar and live recorded organic kit than most other alt songs. But it’s cause there’s a girly voice on it right?”

“Guess alt radio met their quote of the 3 to 5 (women) they play monthly in between 10 year old legacy records,” she continues. “Shout out to the other alt stations supporting it. I’m proud as hell of that record and it means a lot to hear my voice back on rock radio.”

She also addressed her genre-bending music in a following story post.

“I’m happy to make all kinds of music. Pop alt electronic etc. this is a world of genre blending,” she said. “But it makes my blood boil for all the other hardworking women in alt music I know and respect. Boys club.”

Following the success of Halsey’s chart-topping “Without Me” and YUNGBLUD’s absolutely infectious “Loner,” the duo recruited the blink-182 drummer’s talents for an all-encompassing collab, “11 Minutes.”

“The song tells the story of a perfect tragedy that reflects modern love within our society,” YUNGBLUD explains. “We are so distracted and focused on what’s next, we can fail to see what is actually in front of us. We don’t realize how much we need something until it’s taken away from us.”
