Speedy Ortiz leader Sadie Dupuis has released a new track under her Sad13 moniker, ‘Boycott Scream 7’, as the latest addition to her annually updated holiday playlist. The title refers to the upcoming Scream sequel, which fired Melissa Barrera over social media posts showing support for the Palestinian cause. Very soon after, it was reported that Jenna Ortega was no longer set to reprise her role in the film. “People I once loved have taken off their masks/ So I begin this season with a boycott of Scream 7,” Dupuis sings. Listen to it below.
Barely an hour after she posted the track, director Christopher Landon announced on X/Twitter that he “formally exited” the project weeks ago.
Speedy Ortiz released their latest album, Rabbit Rabbit, back in September.
