Speaking on The Nancy Isime Show, 9ice claimed that many artists get involved in smoking and other behaviors because of the devil’s influence in the music world.
“The devil controls music. Devil is the choirmaster. That’s why we smoke and do all the things we do,” 9ice said during the interview.
He explained that his view comes from personal experience and spiritual understanding.
“I’m not lying to you. He [the devil] is the most powerful angel. I’m speaking based on knowledge and what I’ve experienced spiritually,” he added.
