Singer forced to give up work (6)
I believe the answer is:
resign
'give up work' is the definition.
'resign' can be an answer for 'give' (thesaurus). I'm not sure about the 'up work' bit.
'singer forced' is the wordplay.
'forced' is an anagram indicator.
'singer' is an anagram of 'RESIGN'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for resign that I've seen before include "advice for the incompetent?" , "Either leave" , "Give up position" , "Give up office" , "Leave office voluntarily" .)
