He revealed that even though he had a tough skin, the numerous criticisms and trolling on social media overpowered him, causing his hiatus from the music scene.
That unfortunate incident, Pappy Kojo added, nearly turned him into a chain smoker.
“When I got nominated (sic) three times and I didn’t win, I couldn’t handle it. I have always been a troll on Twitter but karma happened. I was going through depression. It was very bad. I wouldn’t go out and won’t go to shows. I was always indoors in Italy. I was smoking a lot,” the rapper revealed in an interview with Delay.
Asked how he was able to get back on track, Pappy said “I just realised it’s something everyone goes through. I don’t think it’s healthy. People expect you to be great and there are no structures to make it happen”.
He revealed that he no longer smokes.
