Singer Rebecca Ferguson Saying Goodbye To Music Industry After Decade Of Career

Rebecca Ferguson decided to leave the music industry for good for one important reason.

Ahead of the release of Ferguson's new album next year, the singer proclaimed she would no longer be part of the music industry after her upcoming and last project.

On Daily Star newspaper's Wired column, the singer revealed that her "Heaven Part 2" would present a combination of the songs she has written in the past 10 years. As to why she chose to retire despite her blooming career, she revealed that her campaign against alleged bullying and exploitation in the music industry played a huge role in her decision.

"After my retirement, I will dedicate my time and energy into helping and nurturing emerging artists and fighting for better treatment," she said.

Ferguson particularly blasted the unfair streaming revenue dedicated for artists, saying that the current setup is not ideal and sustainable. She insisted that the creators of music are more important than anything else. Thus, she asks the independent and major labels to give the artists what they deserve.
