Hopsin says music isn't the profession for him, will "always be an MC at heart."

A little over one year after Los Angeles, California rapper Hopsin revealed his plans to move to Australia, the musician has officially embarked on his move to the country. In addition to confirming his move to Australia, Hopsin announced that he’s also quitting rap.

In a post uploaded to Instagram today (December 17), the West Coast wordsmith thanked his fans for their support and concluded that music isn’t a profession that’s for him. He later added that he’s signed his half of his Funk Volume label to his business partner, and also wished the best of luck to fellow artists Swizzz, Dizzy Wright, and Jarren Benton.

Along with a photo of himself at the airport, Hopsin added the following message:

"I just wanted to take time out to say I appreciate all of u who have supported my music over these past few years. A Lot of u have told me stories about how I have changed your life. You too have changed mine in ways that u can never imagine. Unfortunately, tonight is the night that I am actually moving away to Australia. Over the past couple years I have come to conclusion that this profession just isn't for me, so im going to venture out into new areas of life. I will always be an MC at heart, but this rap stuff just isn't for me. I hope Youguys can respect it. I've signed over my half of the funk volume label to my business partner Dame. I also wished Swizzz, Dizzy Wright and Jarren Benton good luck in their careers. Thank u all! I'm out."
