In October, Grimes and Poppy shared their collaboration "Play Destroy" from Poppy's sophomore album Am I A Girl?. In a new interview with Billboard, Poppy alleges the song's release was delayed for "months" by Grimes and her team, who Poppy claims "bullied [her] into submission."
Poppy also says that Grimes "[bullied] songwriters into signing NDA and not taking credit for songs that they were a part of." Read her full quote below:
We planned the song coming out months ago, and she was preventing it. I got to watch her bully songwriters into signing NDA and not taking credit for songs that they were a part of. She doesn’t practice what she preaches. It’s really upsetting to work with a female that is very outward about a topic, but behind closed doors, it’s the complete opposite. It’s actually very disheartening to people that are actually feminists and supporters of other females.
