Zara Larsson has clapped back on Twitter after her new single 'Ruin My Life' was criticised for focusing on a destructive relationship.
'Ruin My Life' is the first single to be released from Zara's upcoming second album and is about wanting to go back to an unhealthy relationship.
But a Twitter user questioned why Zara had chosen to base a song on this theme given "today's climate."
"I still wonder why you made a song about mindfully choosing to be in a relationship with someone who's going to 'ruin your life', when today's climate calls for women to have more positive control over negative situations like that," @russyrockets wrote.
Now, Zara has hit back saying she has a right to talk about the time without it making her a "bad feminist."
Love isnt easy and finding your way out of a destructive relationship is very hard. RML is about a time in my life where I was very heartbroken and confused. As an artist (and a person) I feel like I have the right to talk about that too without being a bad feminist. https://t.co/nI2imSHCZH

The Swedish singer is currently putting the finishing touches to her new album, expected out in 2019.
