*Teyana Taylor recently shared a health update that has forced her to step back from the spotlight.
As MadameNoire reports, on August 6, she revealed on Instagram that doctors found a noncancerous growth on her vocal cords, requiring immediate surgery. “I’ve been quietly dealing with some vocal challenges for a while now. And after a lot of back and forth with my doctors, I’ve been told I need vocal surgery immediately,” she explained, noting the growth has caused significant discomfort.
The news comes as a blow to the multi-talented artist, who expressed heartbreak over canceling upcoming commitments, including an appearance on Michelle Obama’s podcast. “This moment hurts,” Taylor admitted because she “poured so much of myself into this next chapter.”
Despite the setback, the mother of two remains optimistic, emphasizing the treatable nature of the growth and her commitment to healing. Taylor reassured fans that her upcoming album and short film, “Escape Room,” will still drop on August 22 as planned.
“Just as I was getting ready to finally share this with you, life handed me my own unexpected ‘escape room’ — one I didn’t ask for, but one I now have to find my way out of with patience, rest and faith,” she wrote.

The “One Battle After Another” actress added, “This moment hurts. I wanted to give you everything, the full vision. But please know I put my whole heart into this music, this film, this rollout. And when I return, it’ll be with even more fire, more purpose and the best version of me.”
She closed her message by thanking supporters for their understanding.
“Thank you for rocking with me through it all. For the grace, the love and the space to heal. I can’t wait to be on the other side of this — stronger, softer and singing again.”
