R&B singer Muni Long is opening up about the end of her nine-year marriage to husband Raysean Hairston, revealing that the two have separated.
During an interview on Real 92.3’s The Cruz Show, the songwriter shared that her new album, Revenge, deep dives her personal love life, feeling like pages from her diary. When asked about closing track “Ruined Me,” the songstress revealed that her split largely inspired the mid-tempo record.
“I always pull from real experiences because I’m writing from my unique perspective. I can only talk about what I know. But this is the first time I’m putting my real life in it. It’s no secret…I’ve been married for nine years…it just didn’t work out, you know?”
The Humor & Harmony performer goes on, “I don’t have time for drama, I don’t have time for nonsense. This is one of the most amazing times in my life, and if you can’t celebrate that with me, I’m so sorry, but I’m going to have to leave you behind. I cannot. You wake up every day mad, and there’s literally nothing to be upset about. We have a beautiful child, we’re good. We might owe some bills, but everybody has that.”
“I think it takes incredible strength to realize that this was the love of my life at one point—and he probably could be really good for me if he got it together—but I’m not willing to put my life, my passion, and my happiness on hold for you to catch up. Unfortunately, you might get it in a year…but I’m sorry, I’m probably already over it.”
