After years away from the limelight battling mental illness, celebrated Ghanaian Hiplife musician, Okomfour Kwadee, has made a remarkable public return.

This time, the music icon appears stable, composed, and passionate about a new mission which is aimed at saving the youth from drug abuse.

In an interview with Kwaku Manu, the ‘Atta Adwoa’ hitmaker issued a strong caution against the abuse of opioids, particularly a highly addictive pill known on the streets as “Red” or “225.”

“Doctors have spoken against the intake of Red because if you take it, you can die from it. We have been in the system for some time now, and there is nothing that I haven’t done. There is no strength greater than the one you have. The Red, tramadol, and other stimulants are of no benefit,” Kwadee warned.

The veteran artiste, known for his lyrical storytelling, admitted to experimenting with various stimulants in the past, a habit that took a heavy toll on his health. He urged young people to focus on productive activities and avoid harmful substances that could destroy their lives.

Kwadee also addressed fellow musicians, advising them to steer clear of marijuana and other drugs, and to resist blindly imitating foreign entertainment cultures.

“The drugs are plenty in the system, but the common one right now is 225 or Red. Foreign influence is also part, because most of these musicians are trying to copy them blindly. These days, the whole thing has become like a fashion; they should note that they can’t smoke forever because it’s not helpful,” he added.
