Rina Sawayama dropped some exquisite nu-metal bangers and at her concert, she took the opportunity to be vocal about her beef with 1975 frontman Healy. The emerging alt-pop superstar at her Glastonbury concert on 24th June fired up against Healy and said, “I wrote this next song because I was sick and tired of micro-aggressions. So tonight, this song goes out to a white man who watches Ghetto Gaggers and mocks Asian people on a podcast. He also owns my masters. I’ve had enough.”
The crowd witnessed as the Japanese-British singer unleashes her rage while her band started with the opening notes of Korn’s classic debut album opener ‘Blind’. Sawayama words were meant for the 1975 frontman Matty Healy; he has been in the news for being a part of a show called The Adam Friedland Show earlier this year. And during this show his host did derogatory impressions of various Asian accents. And this time Healy suggested that he watches the violent racially-tilted porn site Ghetto Gaggers. And he also has acknowledged that the videos of that site strongly “brutalized” women.

Not just that he also ridiculed Ice Spice, the renowned rapper, on a recent podcast hosted by Adam Friedland. They simply mocked her heritage by calling her an “Inuit Spice Girl”. And they continued further and made fun of her by faking Chinese and Hawaiian accents. Indicating her parents as her father is African American and her mother is Dominican.
Matt Healy and Rina Sawayama, both are signed singers under the same recording label, Dirty Hit. And the recording label is run by Jaime Oborne, who is also the manager of Matt Healy’s band. Till April 2023, Healy served as a dictator of Dirty Hit Limited. And this is why Sawayama claims, “He also owns my masters”.
She referred that if he mastered her masters then he would have access to her copyright to the original music recordings. And this means that he can use individual compositions and lyrics for him as well. Or they can use these features in their remixes and recordings for covers and other releases. It also has been reported that Matt Healy was spotted at Glastonbury. But it is not very clear whether he attended his labelmate Rina Sawayama’s concert or not.
