The talented 25-year-old took to his Twitter last Wednesday to announce following the release of his first and last album this year he will be stepping away from music.

DEAR MUSIC,
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

BUT AFTER MY FIRST ALBUM IS RELEASED THIS YEAR.

IT WILL BE MY LAST, I LOVE YOU ALWAYS.

Yxng bane is from east London and the talented 25-year-old may have announced he will be releasing his debut album this year, it will be the 4th project of his career, having released a joint project titled ‘Any minute now’ with the South London duo D- Block Europe in 2018,  ‘HBK’ the mixtape in 2018 and ‘Quarantine: The lost files’ in 2020.

The artist’s retirement announcement comes as a surprise to those who are fans of the multi-talented and genre artist, his retirement cant be due to a lack of success with the 25-year-old having had 2 UK top 10, 6 top 40s and 15 top 75s.

Having emerged into the UK scene in 2016 alongside fellow east Londoner Kojo Funds 2ith their classic ‘Fine wine’ which currently sits on 17 million views, this was backed up by a cover of Ed Sheeran’s hit ‘Shape of you’ which saw Bane gain 21 million views and then drop ‘Rihanna’ his stand out song which sits on 43 million views and state in the charts for 15 weeks.

Yxng banes retirement comes as a shock to fans of the 25 years old. His debut album set to release later this year should give fans something to look forward to before the artist steps away from music.
