LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Matty Healy, known for his past relationship with Taylor Swift, appears to have taken a subtle jab at the music icon. This comment emerged during his appearance on the ‘Doomscroll’ podcast, where he discussed how artists often draw from their personal experiences to create their songs. 

He went on to elaborate on the significant themes he plans to include in his upcoming albums. However, he also assured listeners that he does not intend to write about casual relationships in his next album.

It’s important to note that Swift has reportedly directed some sharp criticisms at Healy after their split, including in the title track of 'The Tortured Poet's Department,' as well as in songs like 'The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived' and 'Fresh Out the Slammer.'

Matty Healy, the frontman of The 1975 and known for his brief fling with Taylor Swift, recently teased his upcoming albums, saying, "I just naturally make melodically quite relatable music. So, my next record will be, hopefully, an enjoyable 1975 record, objectively. And it will be about what my records are always about — love, sex, death, communication, all the big things."

He then appeared to take a jab at Swift, expressing his perspective, "You know, if I made a record about all the stuff that was said about me or my casual romantic liaisons or whatever it may be that I’ve kind of become known for just because I was famous, I think that’s an obvious thing to draw from. I’m just not interested in it... the idea of making a record about something that personally happened to me that, by the time I put it out, is gonna be, like, two years old — I see people doing that, as well, and it’s just not interesting."

Healy then stated that he will focus on writing about "subjects that I'm really interested in."

However, he assured his fans that "there’ll be some kind of love songs on there." He also confirmed to his 1975 fans that he and the band do not plan to embark on a large promotional tour as they have in the past. This upcoming album will mark the sixth for the band.
