‘I Don’t Glorify Drugs,’ Saudi On Album Title DRUGS INC

‘I Don’t Glorify Drugs,’ Saudi On Album Title DRUGS INC! The title for Saudi’s last album, DRUGS INC had a lot of Hip Hop fans thinking that he was praising the drug culture in South Africa. The rapper said that he is bringing out the effects of drug abuse in Soweto.

“I named my album that because my generation is the one generation that has had to grow up in a drug infested era. We are the ones that have been most affected and infected by drugs, experiencing everything first hand.But nobody ever talks about it. We are instead labeled but nobody addresses the fact that there are many other factors involved,” said Saudi.

The rapper said that the name of his album was not literal but rather an acronym. “DRUGS INC is an acronym for Devils Revenge Upon God’s Servant Is Not Crime,” said the African Trap Movement member. He went on to talk about how this sums up his upbringing since he comes from Soweto which is a drug infested area.

“The album tries to explain why it is easier for most of us (young people) to glorify drugs. Most of our realities have been hard and harsh, in that context anything that offers an escape route will end up being glorified,” said Saudi.
