Rapper Edem has expressed his disappointment after efforts to support former musician Agbeko failed to yield the expected outcome.
Edem detailed the steps he and his team took to help Agbeko recover following the latter’s emotional “grace-to-grass” revelation on Hitz FM with Andy Dosty in a post he shared on X.
“It’s with deep disappointment that I want to inform all well wishers and family, that the entire team followed up on Agbeko and we did everything possible to get him on a new path,” Edem said, explaining that they had dedicated time and resources to guide Agbeko toward rehabilitation.
He recounted spending the entire day with Agbeko in an attempt to stabilise and encourage him. “Earlier today I spent the whole day with him from salon to eatery,” Edem noted, adding that the support extended well into the evening.
The rapper further revealed that they proceeded to the Pantang health facility in hopes of enrolling Agbeko in a rehabilitation programme, but the attempt was unsuccessful.
“We spent extra four hours into the evening at Pantang health facility where he refused entering into a rehabilitation program. Even with professional effort and guidance,” he said.
Edem expressed gratitude to everyone who contributed to the intervention efforts. “Thanks to everyone who assisted and thanks to team VRMG,” he added.
Agbeko’s recent public confession about losing his wealth and slipping into drug addiction drew widespread sympathy.
During his interview on Hitz FM, he shared that his struggles began after “a girl [he] met at a concert introduced [him] to drugs,” a revelation that sparked conversations about mental health, addiction, and the unseen battles many artistes face.
