In a surprising turn of events, Iggy Azalea has decided to redirect her creative energies away from the music industry. The known rapper, famous for hits like “The Fancy,” recently shared with her followers on X (formerly known as Twitter) that she is putting a halt to her upcoming album.
Iggy expressed her desire to explore other artistic pursuits, emphasizing her stronger passion for design and creative direction.
In a comprehensive post, Iggy Azalea revealed, “In truth what I’ve known for a long time is that I feel more passionately about design and creative direction than I do about song writing. Jokes aside, i do spend a lot more time on that part of things… because Im most confident at that.”
The 33-year-old artist went on to explain the decision to pause her fourth album, stating, “That’s why I want to let you know that I’m not going to finish my album. It’s been paused for a few months while I was giving direction for a different project & in truth I just haven’t felt the urge to go back to it. I feel really happy & passionate in my day to day life when my minds focused on that and so I want to stick to what’s undeniably best for me.”
Iggy expressed genuine happiness and passion in her day-to-day life when focused on design and creative endeavors, prompting her to align with what she believes is undeniably best for her.
Despite initial hesitation about changing careers and concerns about being perceived as someone who quits, Iggy Azalea decided to prioritize her personal fulfillment over external expectations. She clarified, “I resisted at first because I don’t want to be seen as someone who quits or reinforce the idea that I was bullied away from music.”
In her concluding remarks, the Australian musician apologized to her fans who might feel disappointed, saying, “I know for some fans this probably makes you feel a little deflated – I’m sorry to let you down. But, it’s more important I don’t let myself down. I hope you’ll understand.”
Iggy Azalea assured her followers that she would soon share details about the exciting creative projects she has been diligently working on, signaling a new chapter in her artistic journey.
