The Fuji singer reveals this in an interview with the NAN.
Veteran Fuji musician, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as K1 De Ultimate has advised upcoming musicians to stay away from drugs and focus on their crafts.
In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos, K1 gave the advice.
He urged the artists not to allow drugs and other social vices to derail them from God’s purpose for their lives.
According to the ‘Ade Ori Okin’ crooner, staying away from drugs and violence will also earn them more respect from their fans.
He said:
“I don’t smoke, but the issue of drugs goes beyond mere smoking. Today, people inject and sniff all sorts of things, but we must all teach artists about the consequences of the usage of drugs.
“It is not true that it is only after the use of drugs that they will give a good account of themselves on stage; It is all about education.

“But this problem is not peculiar to fuji, it is the same with all genres of music, talk about Rock music, it is important that we educate them.
“If I do drugs I’d look awful at my age, just focus on what’s important, which is your craft.
“They should take their future seriously, if I had been a drug user, I probably wouldn’t be here,”
He told NAN that the tendency of artists throwing shade at their peers in order to test their appeal is worldwide and not exclusive to the fuji genre of music.
He told NAN:
“We used to listen to foreign music a lot when we were young, but many people don’t pay attention to the fact that even those foreigners abuse themselves in the songs,”.
