On 'Broken Hearts Club,' Syd opens up about a terrible breakup. It all works out in the end, though. bindubansinath reports
Photo: Swurve When R&B artist Syd began working on Broken Hearts Club — her first album since releasing the solo projects Fin and Always Never Home in 2017 and Hive Mind with her band the Internet in 2018 — she was writing love songs, not a breakup opus. She was in the thick of a relationship she thought “was gonna last forever” but which instead ended in the 29-year-old’s first-ever broken heart. At first, she tried to push ahead and keep writing, to use the heartbreak as motivation.
Even her space — a four-story Los Angeles townhouse with white walls and lots of natural light — is bright. She’s sitting on the sofa next to a Girls Don’t Cry pillow and an Urban Outfitters throw with a giant smiley face stitched on the front. Save for a Jamiroquai poster and an André 3000 blanket, Syd decorated her townhouse with plants. “They’re living décor,” she tells me. “I don’t like buying stuff just because it’ll take up space on the wall.
“I was over it,” Syd tells me cheerfully, about restarting work on her album after the breakup. She and her ex ended things at the “very beginning” of the pandemic, and Syd recalls the strangeness of watching their intimacy evaporate along with everyone else’s: “We were scared to touch. People were wearing gloves to touch doorknobs.” Those early songs she scrapped “made me sound bitter,” she says. “I could not walk around with that ugly bitterness. It was just … not cute.” She laughs again.
She is. She’s also in a new relationship: Halfway into our conversation, Syd’s new girlfriend comes in from a casting call and gives Syd a vanilla espresso drink from Supa, a women-of-color-owned coffee shop the two of them love. Syd’s girlfriend also brings home Wimbledon, Wickham’s puppy brother, a little pitbull-Malinois mix.
