Singer Grace Khan has spoken up about the growing issue of drug abuse in Uganda’s music industry, warning fellow artists against using drugs before performing on stage.
While appearing on UBC Star TV in an interview with Caro Cleopatra, the “Njakufa Naye” singer was asked what she thinks about musicians who take drugs to boost confidence before facing the crowd.
Grace Khan didn’t hold back when she said she strongly believes that drugs don’t give confidence but only destroy talent and careers.
“It’s not the drugs that make you confident. In fact, they spoil your career. You can be bold without using them,” Grace said during the live interview.
Her comments come at a time when many artists have been linked to drug use, something fans and industry watchers say is becoming a big concern.
Grace Khan encouraged her fellow musicians to focus on building self-confidence naturally through practice, faith, and discipline instead of depending on substances that ruin their health and image.
