In a recent interview with Singersroom, Musiq has announced the time has come for him to focus more on writing and producing and working behind the scenes.
"I think I want to take a step back a little bit as an artist," Musiq confirmed. "I’m not going to stop performing or being an artist. I do enjoy singing and all of that, but it takes away from being creative. At least with being a writer-producer you can constantly create and make music and things like that," says Musiq Soulchild.
On top of writing and producing for other acts, Musiq is writing his first book. According to the publisher, DIP, the book will likely be in stores Summer 2012.
Described as a book "about love and relationships and music," the project is in development.
