Out of 15 jailable crimes, I committed 12- Lord Kenya
Superstar rapper turned Evangelist, Lord Kenya
says he deserved to be in prison for crimes he
committed during his days as a rap artist.

"But for His grace, I should have been there. I
deserved to be there. 100 per cent," Kenya
confessed while contributing to Joy FM's
entertainment show, Rhythmz A-Z.

The show hosted by Mamavi delved into the use of
drugs by artists in the entertainment industry.

The discussion was sparked by the arrest and
prosecution of Kwaw Kesse on charges of smoking
substances suspected to be marijuana.

Lord Kenya said he was introduced to the
recreational drugs by a friend and for 13 years he
became addicted to the illegal substances.

He said he started with weed, graduated to coke
and went into a cocktail of other illegal
substances.

Kenya said he became so much addicted that without
smoking he could not eat. That affected his
lifestyle, he admitted.

He said he started beating up his step mom,
fighting with police and dealt ruthlessly with
event organisers who attempted to cheat him.

In his addiction, he said he knew within him that
it was not a worthy lifestyle, claiming that he
could lock himself in a room the whole day and
cry.

Apparently Kenya was not only into drugs. He said
when he visited inmates in one of the prisons to
celebrate his four years anniversary in Christ, he
saw pasted on the walls of the prison 15 crimes
that could lead a person into jail.

"Out of the 15, I committed about 12 of them," he
confessed, adding, "I should have been in
prison."
