Msaki has revealed her final gig guide before she hangs up her mic.

Taking to her socials the musician posted snaps of her concerts after she announced earlier this month that she would be taking a music hiatus.

“You asked for it. Msaki’s Final gig guide  ... more details loading about individual events next week. 2 more dates TBC,” she wrote.

In a separate post the musician said she was honouring previous dates that were arranged before her decision to take a music break.

“Fam Unfortunately, other than the two more dates we are announcing next week, we can’t create or accept more dates. These had already been locked in and Msaki is honouring those.”

In her statement she expressed how the constant bullying had taken its toll on her and she couldn’t meet the standard of having “thick skin” if you are in the entertainment industry. 

“Please understand why I have to leave this space. Please release me. I may seem weak because I let this get to me. But I am sensitive and sentimental, an empath (this is my most valuable creativity tool) my skin is not thick ... it is porous so I feel the changes in the breeze.

“Allow me to take my leave for my wholeness. Please remember me as the one who said we are not meant to take this, even if it comes with the territory ... Please don’t push people to the edge and only have empathy after they become a statistic,” she wrote.
