Nigerian hip-hop star Ice Prince has revealed his struggle to quit smoking cannabis, citing his proficiency in rolling the substance as a major obstacle to breaking the habit.

The award-winning rapper, whose real name is Panshak Zamani, expressed regret over mastering this skill during a candid conversation on the recent episode of the Konnected Minds podcast.

"One of the things that I wish I could unlearn is how to roll cannabis," Ice Prince confessed. "I wish I had never learned that because if I hadn't learned it, I would probably smoke with a bit of moderation or not even smoke."

The "Oleku" hitmaker explained that his self-sufficiency in preparing cannabis has led to excessive consumption. "Because I know how to roll, I smoke whenever I wake or in the studio," he admitted. "I don't let anyone roll cannabis for me."

While discussing his habits, Ice Prince was quick to clarify the limits of his substance use. "I don't do drugs, I don't mix cannabis with any crazy stuff," he emphasized, suggesting his consumption is restricted to cannabis alone.

The rapper's revelation offers a glimpse into the personal challenges faced by celebrities despite their public success, and highlights the difficulties many experience when trying to break established habits.

Ice Prince rose to prominence in the Nigerian music industry with his breakout single "Oleku" and has remained influential in the African hip-hop scene for over a decade.

His admission comes amid growing conversations about substance use in the entertainment industry and the various struggles artists face behind their public personas.
