Darassa refutes claims he has been missing in action because he is using drugs

Darassa asserts that he does not suffer from drug addiction. The ‘Too Much’ hit maker is rumored to be using banned substance.

Drug use is a real menace in Tanzania and several artists in Bongo have at one point used drugs. Last year several celebs including Wema Sepetu were busted in police drug sweep.

Speculation has been rife that Darassa is also doing drugs. The rumor started after the ‘Muziki’ hit maker went silent on social media and entertainment joints.

I have several projects

Darassa dismissed the rumor while speaking to Clouds FM on Sunday. He explained that he has been missing in action because he was involved in other projects.

“I have accomplished several big projects; and given the popularity of my name, some people would want to see me being active on social media; others would want to know the woman I’m dating; some would want to know where I hang out often. I don’t share that information publicly,” said Darassa.

He blamed information vacuum for rumors about him using drugs. Darassa says that his rivals are behind the rumors because they are scared of his silence.

“And because there’s an information vacuum about what I do in private, some people have speculated that I abuse hard drugs and substances; others claim I’m confused. No, I am doing fine. People are often scared of silence; when your competitor is silent, you don’t know what he or she is planning; and as a result, you tend to panic. That is what is happening with my competitors.”
