Her latest album, a concept piece titled Hopeless Fountain Kingdom, draws it’s narrative from the Shakespearean tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. Including hits Now Or Never and Bad At Love, Halsey has spearheaded this project through her songwriting and directing the video for the track Alone. Known not only for her music- the artist made an empowering speech during the 2018 Women’s March in New York, in which she spoke of sexual assault.
