Nigerian rapper and singer Ice Prince has disclosed that his former smoking habit cost him hundreds of millions of naira before he eventually decided to quit.
Speaking during a recent appearance on the Black Box podcast, the “Aboki” hitmaker revealed that he spent about N340 million on cannabis between 2020 and 2026 from a single supplier based in Lagos.
According to the rapper, the amount only covered purchases from one dealer and did not include money spent on other suppliers located in Abuja, Jos, Ghana, and London.
“From 2020 to 2026, I have spent N340 million on weed from just one dealer alone, not to even mention my other dealers from Abuja, Ghana, Jos, and London. This is just one dealer, who lives close to me in Lagos,” he said during the interview.
Ice Prince explained that he eventually stopped smoking and drinking alcohol as part of a broader effort to improve his lifestyle and health.
The rapper said the decision came during a period of weight loss and personal reflection, which he described as a journey of self-discovery.
He also disclosed during the conversation that he has remained celibate for a period of time.
The revelation has sparked conversations online about celebrity lifestyles, personal transformation, and the financial impact of addiction-related habits.
