Nigerian hip-hop artist Phenom has shared his experience with substance abuse, revealing that he started using illicit drugs when he entered the music industry.

He explained that he became addicted to cannabis because he believed it would inspire him to create hit songs. This revelation came in the latest episode of the Terms And Conditions podcast.

Phenom has since stated that he no longer uses drugs, highlighting the importance of overcoming addiction and making healthier choices.

He said, “I wasn’t doing drugs before music. I don’t do drugs anymore, though. I was using it to boost my creativity.

“When I started smoking, I started with just puffing. And I remember, the first time I smoked I made my first hit song. So I felt like igbo [cannabis] gave me my hit song. So, I kept on going back. I did ‘Murder Dem’ with Wizkid, it was igbo. I was so high that they were holding me in the studio to record. I always went back to smoking weed because I felt like that was my source.
