Agbeko revealed that things got worse when he began suffering from memory loss, making it hard for him to recognize even familiar faces.
“Sometimes I forget people I’ve known for years. They think I’m showing off, but I’m really not. I just can’t remember,” he said, adding that he now believes he needs medical help.
Agbeko, who rose to fame with his hit “Wototome,” was once admired for his lyrical style and energetic performances. But like many entertainers, he faced personal struggles behind the scenes, which eventually affected his mental health and livelihood.
Despite his challenges, the rapper remains hopeful and says he is determined to seek help and rebuild his life. His story highlights the unseen battles many musicians face beyond the spotlight.
