STYLES P IS RETIRING FROM RAP: Styles P has announced that he is retiring from rap next year. He shared via Instagram, “I believe I have run myself down a tad bit over the past few years. Being a super hard working emcee and a health advocate. For one, I’m not really that great at multi tasking it’s actually my drive that keeps me going and that slack falls back on my family, business partners and co workers. I thought about it harder and came to the conclusion that I need to walk away from my solo career period ( I think I gave y’all enough ).” He continued, “Of course you will see me In the spots and of course I’m going to keep pushing the movement when it comes to health,” he added. “I just gotta go figure a better way to do it and not harm myself mentally nor inconvenience others anymore. As far as any juices for life business goes I will plug you with one of my partners and the job will get done! The people need their health. Never forget, the message is always bigger than the messenger!!! So if you know the way, spread it . That is all that counts!!” Styles will be dropping two more solo projects before hanging up his mic for good.
