Jamiroquai quits music to start a family
Jamiroquai singer Jay Kay has announced that he is quitting music after splitting with his record company.
The frontman has admitted that he is sick of touring and wants to settle down and start a family.
The move comes after he recently parted ways with record label SonyBMG.
"I haven't been happy there for a while," Jay said. "I've had some ups and downs but in the end the downs were just too many. When we talked about me leaving, I jumped at the chance. I'm bored. I don't want to go back on the road. We all need a rest to be honest. I don't need the money or a deal.
"One minute I would be promoting a single with one team and the next they brought different people in and expected me to go along with it. There was no way in hell I was doing that. I'm just tired of the format and wanted to call it a day with them."
Jamiroquai have sold 27 million albums since they formed in the early 1990s.
They have released seven albums and an eighth LP was due to be released later this year.
"I might be back if I get my inspiration again, but who knows," he told the Daily Mirror. "All I'm going to do now is fly my helicopter and look for the right lady to have children with."

I really like Jamiroquai. their last album wasn't their best but they're a great band and one of the very few a got a chance to see live. Sony don't know how to treat artists, it was the same thing with Oasis.... bastards I hope the other guys don't release anything else. It'd be very stupid, it's not Jamiroquai without Jay Kay

Fucking hell, that guy is called Jay Kay and the band name is Jamiroquai. It's September 22, 2018 & it finally clicked for you. Better late than never... In the same vein, you might be interested to know that Adam Ant fronted a band called Adam & the Ants.
