Speaking during the interview, Crayon, who recently lost her mother, said his admiration for Tiwa Savage went beyond professional respect.
He admitted he had a massive crush on her in 2018, when he was still finding his feet in the music industry.
The singer explained that during one of their interactions, Savage asked if he smoked, and he responded affirmatively.
He claimed she then handed him what he described as “Backy,” a slang term often used to describe a mixture rolled into a blunt.
“Tiwa Savage was my crush in 2018, she gave me my first Backy. She asked me if I smoked. I said yes mama I smoke, and she handed it to me. Since then, I started smoking Backy,” he said.
The revelation quickly became a talking point among fans, especially given Tiwa Savage’s influence and Crayon’s honesty about the experience.
Crayon further explained that the encounter marked the beginning of a habit he later struggled with. While he did not go into deep details about the period, his tone suggested the experience had a notable effect on him.
