Ace Nigerian singer, Solidstar has recounted his struggles with the use of hard substances.
The “Omotena” hitmaker disclosed in a sneak peek of an upcoming Honest Bunch podcast episode that he was first exposed to “ice” in 2021 by a group of young boys.
As a stimulant substance, ice, commonly referred to as crystal methamphetamine, quickens the flow of information between the brain and body.
The artist claimed that the drug had a very negative impact on him. He claimed that after taking the hard drug, a voice would urge him, “me not to pay for things,” and he would begin to feel like a king.
