The label confirmed that the matter has now been resolved, allowing Ruger to fully refocus on his music career, including work on upcoming projects.

Blown Boy Entertainment also expressed gratitude to fans for their continued support and patience throughout the singer’s hiatus from releasing music.

Additionally, the label unveiled Ruger’s summer performance lineup, featuring shows in Belgium, Màlaga, Bali, Malawi, and the United States.

The full statement read:

"Dear RU Nation,

We know it’s been a while since Ruger dropped new music.

For some time, Ruger was caught up in a series of personal challenges after someone he dated decided to sue him for alleged “emotional distress,” and “damages”. That chapter is now behind him. A new chapter begins. A new energy emerges.

Ruger is back to doing what he loves most making music. And best believe, he’s been cooking.

NEW MUSIC DROPS THIS AUGUST

We would like to sincerely thank everyone who remained patient and continued to support Ruger throughout the silence. Your loyalty and belief have meant everything.

This summer, you can catch Ruger performing in:

Belgium

Málaga

Bali

Malawi

United States

August belongs to us.

Stay tuned, enjoy your summer, and get ready for what’s next.

With Appreciation,

Management Blown Boy Entertainment."
