He wrote: “Last solo album will be a three part series broken up. Ghost of the Past. Ghost of the Present. Ghost of the Future. Memoirs of a Gangster & Gentleman.”
The announcement was met with excitement from fans and fellow rap figures alike, with Pete Rock seemingly confirming his involvement by commenting: “[fire emojis] im on dat lets goooooo.”
Styles P has been counting down to his retirement for around two years, detailing a lengthy farewell to fans in 2022.
“I believe I have run myself down a tad bit over the past few years,” he wrote at the time. “Being a super hard working emcee and a health advocate.

“For one, I’m not really that great at multi tasking it’s actually my drive that keeps me going and that slack falls back on my family, business partners and co workers. I thought about it harder and came to the conclusion that I need to walk away from my solo career period (I think I gave y’all enough).”
Styles continued by noting that he still plans on working with his LOX comrades Jadakiss and Sheek Louch, but his solo efforts will be coming to a halt.
He added that he’s on several “important boards” that he’ll dedicate more of his time to, and additionally said he’ll be stepping away from his juice company Juices For Life.
“Of course you will see me In the spots and of course I’m going to keep pushing the movement when it comes to health,” he added. “I just gotta go figure a better way to do it and not harm myself mentally nor inconvenience others anymore.

“As far as any juices for life business goes I will plug you with one of my partners and the job will get done! The people need their health. Never forget, the message is always bigger than the messenger!!! So if you know the way, spread it . That is all that counts!!”
Styles P dropped the first album in this planned two-part send-off last year.
Titled Penultimate: A Calm Wolf is Still a Wolf, the 13-track album boasted guest appearances from Snoop Dogg and Busta Rhymes and Benny The Butcher among others.
