Watch our January cover star, Mitski, react to posts about Mitski

Watch the Issue 127 cover star react to fan tweets, memes and TikToks she’s missed during her social media hiatus.

In her own words, Mitski “lives in blissful ignorance” of whatever is being said about her online. Since 2019, at least, which is when the enigmatic musician announced her hiatus from music and deleted her social media presence indefinitely.

Just over two years later, Mitski – or rather, her management – started posting online again, teasing a new record entitled Laurel Hell with synth-heavy lead single Working for the Knife. 

Ahead of its release, and following our recent Mitski cover story, we caught up with Mitski in London and filled her in on what’s been going on in her notifications during her stint offline. Namely tweets, memes and TikToks – where her track Nobody found viral success last year – from her fans.
