Jazmine Sullivan Taking A Hiatus?

It seems as if the music business has gotten the best of Jazmine Sullivan. Earlier, the singer announced via her Twitter account that she was going to spend more than 10 seconds away from singing. Shortly after, the tweets were gone. Fortunately, Straight From The A took a screenshot of them. Here’s what she said below.

I’m making an official announcement that I am taking a break from music. I’m trying to figure out who I am…w/out a mike, paper, or pen. I promised myself when it wasn’t fun anymore I wouldn’t do it. And here I am. I’m not saying I wont ever sing in my life becuz I dont believe that. But in this moment…rt now… i got some things to figure out. I love u all and appreciate u soooooo much. U have no idea how much u’ve inspired me and fed my ego. But the truth is that I have to believe in me whether you all do or not. And thats what I’m look for. That belief in myself. Me. I . I love us. Thanks for being here for me and riding with me on this journey. Let us continue. I’m fine everyone. just switching things up a bit till i get it right. now kanye… thats who we should have a prayer circle for. lolol

 UPDATE: We’ll let her sing it to you. “I’m Not A Robot” produced by Salaam Remi

    hahaha

    good for her, i hope she finds something she likes

    So Kanye “played himself” by wearing bandannas…cuz that makes sense. #fail

  3. Nathaniel says:

    i’m i the only one who thinks her mention of kanye at the end was random as hell? somehow… that shit just didn’t “fit.”

  4. am a hater says:

    i guarentee if she sold a million copies her first week she wouldnt be taking a break lmao

  5. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    Jazmine needs to expand her talents like doing STAGE PLAYS or do sum acting in MOVIES. I remember doing a interview with JACK THRILLER she mentioned that she’s a very LAZY person.

  6. nsisu says:

    rapradar played themselves for criticizing Kanye for wearing a headband. There are dozens of interesting topics that rappers have recently done that require the attention of the fans of hip-hop. C’mon, let the guy wear a headband.

    Many of the “you played yourselves” have very well thought out arguments and I am simply disapointed in the lack of thought that went into this criticism.

  7. dashing says:

    @Nathaniel, word. I don’t know what that random shot at Kanye was about. Seems a few months late too. Why do we have to pray for Kanye?

  8. 1234... says:

    Kanye looks like a gay back-up dancer, everyone at that party turned up suited and booted and this fool arrived looking like he was ready to bust a move to Boy George.

  9. IZM says:

    Idk if this is kinda what the “You Played Yourself” was getting at, but I think Kanye’s whole wannabe-Pac persona is pretty hilarious. Whether its his actions, words (lyrics or interviews) or even clothes, its like he thinks hes the new black revolutionary, just because people dont like him. I dont think he can even really process the idea that sometimes people get annoyed cuz hes a ridiculous douche, not because hes black.

    (DISCLAIMER FOR THE KANYE STANS: ^THIS SHIT DOESNT EFFECT THE MUSIC… MBDTF WAS DOPE)

  10. ZoomZoom says:

    LOL SHE ACTING LIKE PEOPLE ACTUALLY CARE……

    THE DREAM RETIRED FROM MAKING MUSIC BUT DID ANYONE CARE? NOPE

  11. Errol says:

    it’s Kanye West. You know damn well 3 years from now these “Up and Coming” rappers are going to be rocking pink bandanas claiming they’re prettier than Lil B

  12. D says:

    I don’t give a fuuuuck! (Smokey voice)

  13. Niyemortal says:

    to claim a hiatus when you havent really gotten as far as you could have gotten is very ill advised, especially now. She just recently got a hit on the radio plus she’s on the Eminem song that got released a while ago ( Cocaine) and NOW she wants to take a break? i think the prayer circle would suitable for her instead. Kanye’s doing fine, bandana or not…

  14. Itz Yourz says:

    Another has succumb to there defeat in record sales. Maybe if she stopped making men bashing music she would of went further.

    Sounds llike she lost hope…and once you loose that…there isnt a future in this game.

    Just switch up songwriters then pop out some mixtapes and make yourself hot again…like everyone else done…fuck wrong with herr brain? Kanye did some stupid shit that is why he fell back for a min. You just anit moving movement…no need for a hiatus…reinvent yourself chick!

  18. Doe Money says:
