Charles Nii Armah Mensah, popularly known as Shatta Wale, has disclosed that he has significantly reduced his marijuana consumption due to recent concerns about his mental health. <\/p>\n In an interview on Fakye Showbiz on November 24, 2024, Shatta Wale said he can now barely finish a full roll of marijuana, a contrast to his earlier habits. <\/p>\n \u201cI used to smoke a lot, but as I’ve gotten older, I can barely finish a roll of weed anymore, and it’s mainly because of my mental health and overall health. Honestly, it feels like a waste of time now,” he said. <\/p>\n The dancehall musician also mentioned that he now undergoes regular health screenings every three months to monitor his well-being. <\/p>\n “When I’m over-stressed, I go to the hospital. Recently, I went for a check-up with Sammy Flex, and the doctor suggested I take an HIV test. Sammy was worried about the results, but when they came back, he was impressed,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n The “Ayoo” hitmaker also addressed rumours that he uses hard drugs or smokes marijuana before every performance. <\/p>\n “I’ve never gone on stage high. People say I smoke or even take cocaine before performing, but that’s not true. Before I go on stage, I pray and drink water. If I were to take those substances, I’d probably black out because of the energy I give during my performances,” Shatta Wale stated. <\/p>\n Watch the full video below:<\/b><\/p>\n![\"Dancehall](\"https:\/\/cdn.ghanaweb.com\/imagelib\/pics\/448\/44866694.295.jpg\" "\\"Dancehall")
