BILLIE Eilish has seemingly called out Taylor Swift by ripping singers who re-release albums for money as wasteful.
The What Was I Made For Artist remarked on “big artists” re-releasing their music on different hardcopy forms during an interview with Billboard.

While Billie, 22, didn’t mention Taylor, 34, by name, many fans believe her comments were squarely aimed at the Cruel Summer singer.
In the interview, Billie mentioned, “We live in this day and age where, for some reason, it’s very important to some artists to make all sorts of different vinyl and packaging.
“Which ups the sales and ups the numbers and gets them more money and gets them more.”
The No Time to Die singer asserted, “I can’t even express to you how wasteful it is.”

“It is right in front of our faces and people are just getting away with it left and right,” she continued.
Billie explained that she finds the reissuing of music on vinyl form “really frustrating” as someone who goes out of their way to be “sustainable” and does the best she can to make sure everyone in her team is also “being sustainable.”
She then seemed to allude to Taylor as she complained, “It’s some of the biggest artists in the world making f***ing forty different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more.”
Billie expressed that it deeply bothered her that some music artists are more concerned with numbers and making more money than what effects this wasteful practice has on the world.
Taylor routinely releases multiple versions of her albums on different formats, including vinyl, and is preparing to do it again – as she will soon drop 4 versions of her new album, as reported by TMZ.
Billie is also guilty of releasing various hard copy versions of her work but has made sure her vinyl records are made with recyclable materials such as “100% recycled black vinyl,” and “recycled scraps for colored variants”
Even the records’ packaging is made with eco-friendly materials, such as “shrink-wrap made from sugar cane.”
