Popular Afrobeat artist Joey B has opened up on his health for the first time after some event organizers tackled him for not showing up for an event he was paid to perform.
The “Tonga” hitmaker for the first time has disclosed he is battling Asthma and that the situation got out of hand in 2018. He made these revelations in a series of tweets today, January, 7th.
In a series of tweets, he said;
“Where do I start… so the past few years I’ve been fighting this Asthma thing. got really serious in 2018 but somehow I’ve been thuggin it out. as of last year to date its been constant asthma attacks due to weather changes or excessive dust in Ghana.“
“I have still performed in this condition and exuded rage/energy on stage. I will not deliberately take monies and not deliver as expected. I did not no show an event because I think I’m drake. free events sef, I still show love how much more paid ones.“
