Veteran Highlife musician, Smart Nkansah, says he has never used drugs to enhance his performance on stage ever since starting his singing career.

Speaking to Kojo Preko Dankwa on Kasapa Entertainment on Kasapa FM, the legendary singer explained that his life is a living testimony because there’s a perception among a section of the public that most musicians take drugs before they step on the stage to perform.

Smart Nkansah and his Sunsum Band, formed in 1981, was a collaboration between guitarist Smart Nkansah (Sweet Talks fame) and singer Agyaaku, who achieved notoriety singing with Yamoah’s Band.

Nkansah left the Sweet Talks in 1976 to form the short-lived Black Hustlers Band with Agyaaku, and it is this group which eventually evolved into the Sunsum Band.
