According to him, he would have been a better artiste if not for his addiction to marijuana. He said that his addition to marijuana made his brain work inappropriately which hurt his career.
“I forget myself easily. I got to the studio and instead of doing the right thing, I’ll be shouting here and there, thinking that I am doing the right thing,” he said in an interview with JoyNews.

He also advised those calling for the legalization of marijuana not to only look at the economic aspect of it but also look at the effect it will bring if not regulated well.
“They think economically it makes sense because there is money there but we have to be careful. Because if it’s not regulated, people would take it anyhow,” he said.
Lord Kenya is widely regarded as one of the best Ghaanaian rappers of all time and one of the most influential Ghanaian musicians of the 21st century.
He rose to fame in the late 90s when he joined Slip Entertainment Music owned by Mark Okraku Mantey with his album ‘Sika Baa’ earning him several nominations at the Ghana Music Awards in 2001, including winning the Artiste of the Year award.
