Biography
The first artist signed to Simon Cowell's Syco label who hadnât been sourced via a TV talent show, Labrinth has developed from one of the UK's most talked about young producers and songwriters into a chart-topping urban pop star in his own right. Taught to create music by his producer brother Mac 1, Timothy Lee McKenzie (born in Hackney, London, on January 4, 1989) worked with Master Shortie, Tinchy Stryder, and Chipmunk before featuring on Tinie Tempah's Number 1 hit, âPass Out.â Simon Cowell became involved with the artist in 2010, and his debut single âLet the Sun Shineâ became an immediate summer anthem with its effervescent positivity and dancefloor euphoria, reaching Number 3 on the UK Singles chart. Full of bouncy electro and heartfelt R&B, the album Electronic Earth (2012) shot to number 2 in the UK Albums Chart and produced the Top 5 hits âEarthquakeâ and âLast Time,â as Labrinth became one of the breakthrough stars of 2012. âBeneath Your Beautifulâ - his romantic duet with Emeli Sandé - brought him his first Number 1 single and he started his own label Odd Child Recordings by signing up Etta Bond as its first artist. In the following years, McKenzie appeared on The Weekndâs 2015 album Beauty Behind the Madness, collaborated with Nicki Minaj on the 2018 single âMajesty,â and teamed up with Australian pop singer Sia and American DJ Diplo for the supergroup LSD, with whom he released the singles âGenius,â âAudio,â and âThunderclouds,â and the full-length Labrinth, Sia & Diplo Present... LSD (2019). That same year, he returned with his sophomore effort, Imagination & the Misfit Kid, and became the lead composer for the HBO teen drama Euphoria, whose viral hit single âStill Donât Know My Nameâ amassed millions of views across streaming platforms. After the release of Euphoria Season 2 in 2022, Labrinth recorded his third album, Ends & Begins (2023), featuring âNever Felt So Aloneâ with Billie Eilish, which reached number 33 on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2024, he released the soundtrack to the film The Kitchen, in collaboration with Alex Baranowski. In 2026, he followed up with the diptych Cosmic Opera I & II, an ambitious orchestral work that peaked at numbers 3 and 4 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart, respectively.
