Drugs Took Everything from Me -Rapper Agbeko

Ghanaian rapper Agbeko has opened up about the darkest period of his life, revealing how drug addiction left him homeless and struggling with memory loss.

In a heartfelt interview with Andy Dosty on Hitz FM on 28 October 2025, the former Last Two signee shared how substance abuse destroyed everything he had worked for, his money, home, friendships, and reputation.

“I was doing drugs. I couldn’t get myself a place anymore; I had no means to. I lost everything that was holding me up, so I found myself on the street,” he recalled.

The Wototome hitmaker explained that although he earned some money from music, it was not enough to sustain him. Most of what he made went into basic survival and his music career.

“I would be lying if I said I didn’t make money from music. Though it wasn’t paying much, whatever I got from shows, I divided into parts. Some went into bills, some into studio work and promo CDs, and the rest into food. That’s how I managed the little I had,” he said.

Agbeko revealed that he later tried to survive by running a small boutique business, selling clothes both indoors and on the streets.

“I sold clothes, and sometimes I carried them around for people to buy,” he added.

Despite his efforts to rebuild his life, the rapper said he began to suffer from memory loss, which made life even more difficult.

“Along the line, I realised I had an issue with memory loss. It’s serious, and I feel like I need medical attention. I started forgetting people I knew. When those who supported me saw me and I didn’t respond, they thought I was being arrogant. But they don’t know what I’m going through, so I don’t blame anyone,” he explained.

Agbeko was once one of Ghana’s most promising rappers under Hammer’s The Last Two Music Group in the early 2000s.

However, his career took a sharp decline after his struggles with addiction. Recently, videos of him living on the streets surfaced online, sparking concern and sympathy from fans who remember his vibrant early years in the Ghanaian music scene.
