Iggy Azalea Is Coming Out Of Rap Retirement

Iggy Azalea Says Her Rap Retirement Is Over

Iggy Azalea says she’s coming out of retirement because her haters are going to hate regardless.

“A year ago I was willing to walk away from music because I was tired of the negative energy it attracted,” she tweeted.

“But what I’ve learned is that even when I’m minding my business, y’all gonna be negative AND nosey. So if I can’t have peace, neither can you. I’m coming back. Cry about it,” Iggy added.

A year ago, she tweeted, “Shifting my energy and focus to what I’m most excited about is what is right for me and I hope you’ll continue to support whatever creative projects I’m out here doing! I really love this album and I just want my fans to enjoy this with me. I hope I see so many of you on tour!”

She has still been performing so her retirement was only in part.
