Calvin Harris Addresses Feud Speculation Over Scrapped Miley Cyrus Collab

Calvin Harris and Miley Cyrus's anticipated 2024 collaboration "Ocean" was ultimately scrapped, reportedly due to issues involving Miley's record label, leading to significant fan speculation and debate. Calvin previewed the track with Miley's vocals during live performances and on social media, but later deleted all teasers and announced in 2025 that the song would be released with a different vocalist, widely believed to be Jessie Reyez. Harris's responses to fan questions on TikTok about the original version sparked rumors of tension, although he denied any feud, attributing the cancellation to a miscommunication on his part and expressing affection for Miley. Despite some fans demanding the release of the original with Miley's vocals, Harris praised the new version, intensifying discussions online. Both artists have remained largely silent on the label-related issues, leaving much to fan and media speculation. The controversy highlights challenges artists face in collaborations, especially when label decisions impact releases.
