Sir Robert Bryson Hall II, better known as Logic, one of the best rappers in the world, has officially announced his retirement from music. In a Twitter update, he mentioned, “Officially announcing my retirement with the release of “No Pressure” executive produced by No I.D. July 24th… It’s been a great decade. Now it’s time to be a great father.”

Logic is famous for something other than his rap game though. He is perhaps one of the craziest video game fanatics, who has been playing since a very young age. In 2016, he gave us a little tour of his gaming room, and it represented every gamer’s dream. From Playstation headphones to a strategy book on Witcher and also throw in few Storm Troopers in the mix. 

He showed us some of his favorite games from back then, which included Call Of Duty Black Ops, Battlefield 4, Destiny, The Last Of Us, Wolfenstein, and many more. Recently, a report from The Verge revealed that Logic is signing a seven figured deal with Twitch.
