“If I can get someone to help me repackage myself, I would be happy. Even if it means going back to school, I am ready. I am more than ready to go to rehab so that I get my mind back in order,” stated the singer.
He revealed that he has been struggling financially, a situation he says has brought him so much criticism as an artist.
“Since I released that song, I have been victimized for lacking money. When I get into a matatu, people wonder which artist is this that does not have money. But I have accepted myself and my situation,” stated Stoopid Boy.
