The rapper claimed that he believed swallowing would spur him to produce more successful music.
In the most recent edition of the Terms and Conditions podcast, Phenom gave a speech.
But he said that he no longer uses narcotics.
“I wasn’t doing drugs before music,” he declared. But I’m not using drugs anymore. I was utilising it to increase my originality.
“I used to just puff when I first started smoking. And I recall writing my first hit song the day I started smoking. Igbo [cannabis] gave me my hit song, in my opinion. That’s why I kept returning. I performed “Murder Dem” in Igbo with Wizkid. They were holding me in the studio to record since I was so high. I felt like smoking pot was my source, so I kept going back to it.
