During an interview on MTV Lebanon to celebrate her 20th anniversary in the music industry, Elissa stated that she was struggling mentally, noting that her decision at the time was that she would not be able to perform again, which she wrote on Twitter.

In 2019, the Lebanese recording artist announced that she will be quitting the music industry after releasing her last album “Sahbit Raey”.

“I am preparing this new album with a lot of love and passion. The reason is that it will be the last one in my career. I am announcing this with a heavy heart but with a lot of conviction because I can’t work in a field that is similar to mafias. I can’t be productive anymore,” Elissa tweeted on Twitter.
