Zach Bryan is turning heads with his latest album, which features an array of diss tracks that appear to be aimed squarely at his ex, Brianna“Chickenfry”LaPaglia. In the standout song“Skin,”he uses raw and graphic lyrics to detail the emotional aftermath of their breakup, even mentioning taking a“blade to my old tattoos.”It’s clear that their split in October 2024, marked by accusations of emotional abuse and infidelity from LaPaglia, has left its mark on him.
Songs like“Plastic Cigarette”and“With Heaven on Top”further provide insight into Bryan’s feelings concerning their past, contrasting his previous relationship with his new wife, Samantha Leonard. While it’s evident that Bryan is now happily settled in his new life, his music doesn’t shy away from unpacking the complexities of love lost. This shift from romance to diss tracks may just be the catharsis we didn’t know we needed, but it sure adds a spicy layer to his artistry. What do you think—can music heal heartache, or does it just rear up the drama?
