Teyana Taylor announces retirement from music: ‘When one door closes another will open’

Teyana Taylor has decided to retire from her musical journey.

The star took to Instagram on Friday to share her Spotify end-of-year data, which boasted more than 162 million streams on her songs from 15.2 million listeners in 92 countries.

“Wow, who did that? Y’all did that!” she wrote. “Thank you. I ain’t gone front in times of feeling super under appreciated as a artist, receiving little to no real push from the ‘machine’, constantly getting the shorter end of the stick, being overlooked, I mean the list on and on lol..”

 

She further announced that she’s “retiring this chapter of my story with the comfort that i can depart with peace of mind seeing that all the hard work & passion put in was indeed loved & supported somewhere in the world!”
