Legendary bongo artist, TID makes shocking revelation about his drug addiction that pulled him down and made him go under.
Speaking to The Trend´s Amina Rabar, Khalid Mohamed better known as TID reveals he has been in the music career since he was 17.
The bongo sensation has been a hitmaker before he met the cruel world of drugs expressing:
As a young upcoming artiste, I met different producers who wanted to coach me but some ended misleading me.
Still too young for the cruel world, producers led him into drugs the likes of cocaine, that derailed his course and purpose in the career.
Through addiction, I ended up losing great opportunities that would have bettered my career but I had lost focus and direction.

However, he might have lost his career, but not who he was created to be.
People will always have different opinions and you can´t stop them.
People think celebrities are not humans and expect too much from them that we cannot live a normal life.
Additionally, announcing his comeback, he reveals he will be dropping an album pretty soon that all should look out for.
