Former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher quits music after failing to come up with a hit.
Former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has "retired" from music after failing to write any new hits.
Gallagher has not released any music since the break-up of his band Beady Eye in 2014, and is ready to give up his rock career having lost faith in his songwriting ability.
"I am
retired now. I can write 25 songs but all of them will be a s*** (sic)," he told a fan, as reported in The Sun newspaper.
Gallagher formed Beady Eye in 2009, after the break-up of Oasis, but his new group struggled to replicate his old band's success, as Beady Eye only had one single make it into the UK Top 40 chart.
The veteran star did briefly flirt with a solo career last year performing a number of solo songs at a pub gig in Charlestown, Ireland, but revealed in January that he had no plans to go solo, writing on Twitter: "Solo record are you f*****g tripping dickhead im not a c*** LG X."
