周三,這位33歲的“Fancy”音樂家在X(前身為推特)上分享了一篇很長的帖子,解釋說她不會完成這個項目,而是會進行一些不同的創(chuàng)作。
"I’ve always been someone who finds my joy in being creative & seeing my ideas come to life.
“我一直是一個從富有創(chuàng)造力和看到自己的想法變?yōu)楝F(xiàn)實中找到快樂的人。
For a long time I used music to deliver my big crazy ideas to the world," Azalea wrote.
很長一段時間以來,我用音樂向世界傳遞我瘋狂的想法,”阿塞莉婭寫道。
"I know a lot of people have this idea that I was 'bullied away from music' and that’s something I’ve always laughed at because I’d never be bullied out of anything! In fact, I’m too stubborn. I think I’ve even resisted changes within myself at times, purely because I don’t like being viewed as someone who quits," she continued.
她繼續(xù)說道:“我知道很多人都認為我被‘音樂欺負了’,這是我一直嘲笑的事情,因為我從來沒有被欺負過!事實上,我太固執(zhí)了。我想我有時甚至抗拒自己內心的改變,純粹是因為我不喜歡被視為一個放棄的人。”
Azalea then revealed that she would be moving away from music and into something else.
阿塞莉婭隨后透露,她將從音樂轉向其他領域。
"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," she explained. "To many of you that’s no shock to read.
她解釋道:“事實上,我很長一段時間以來都知道,比起歌曲創(chuàng)作,我對設計和創(chuàng)作方向更有熱情。”“對你們中的許多人來說,這讀起來并不令人震驚。
It shows in my work. Haha! Jokes aside, I do spend a lot more time on that part of things… because I'm most confident at that."
它體現(xiàn)在我的作品中。哈哈!拋開玩笑不談,我確實在這方面花了更多的時間……因為我在這方面最有信心。"
She added: "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.
她補充道:“這就是為什么我想讓你知道,我不會完成我的專輯。它已經(jīng)暫停了幾個月,而我正在為另一個項目提供指導&事實上,我只是沒有回去的沖動。”
The rapper said she feels "really happy & passionate when she's "focused on that."
這位說唱歌手表示,當她“專注于此”時,她感到“非常快樂和熱情”。"
"I want to stick to what’s undeniably best for me," she said of her decision, adding: "Can't wait to start sharing some of the things I’ve been involved in creating & hoping you’ll see my quirk & humor in anything I touch!"
“我想堅持對我來說無疑是最好的,”她談到自己的決定時說,并補充道:“迫不及待地想開始分享我參與創(chuàng)作的一些東西,希望你能在我接觸的任何東西中看到我的怪癖和幽默!”
The "Black Widow" performer then offered an apology to fans who were waiting on music from her.
這位“黑寡婦”的表演者隨后向等待她的歌迷道歉。
"I know for some fans this probably makes you feel a little deflated - I’m sorry to let you down," she wrote. "But, it’s more important I don’t let myself down. I hope you'll understand."
她寫道:“我知道,對于一些粉絲來說,這可能會讓你感到有點泄氣——很抱歉讓你失望了。”“但是,更重要的是我不要讓自己失望。我希望你能理解。”
After a fan asked if she'd be releasing a coffee table book still, Azalea replied on X (formerly known as Twitter) that "it's just taking longer because I spent all that unexpected time sick and need to compile a bit more before it’s completed."
在一位粉絲問她是否還會發(fā)布一本咖啡桌書后,阿塞莉婭在X(前身為推特)上回答說:“這只需要更長的時間,因為我花了所有意想不到的時間生病,需要在完成之前再編譯一點。”
After Azalea announced she was planning to take a few years off from music to "focus on other creative projects in 2021, she shared in August 2022 that she was coming out of retirement, per Billboard.
阿塞莉婭宣布她計劃在2021年從音樂界休息幾年,“專注于其他創(chuàng)意項目”后,她在2022年8月分享了自己即將退休的消息。
"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.”
她在推特上寫道:“一年前,我愿意放棄音樂,因為我厭倦了它帶來的負面能量。但我學到的是,即使我在處理我的事情,你們也會變得消極和愛管閑事。所以,如果我不能平靜,你們也不能。我會回來的。為此哭泣。”
