Eric Donaldson is in Ghana for the first time for a concert dubbed �Big Man Dance� to be held tonight, at the plush Mensivc Hotel in Accra for very important personalities (VIPs) as well as February 5 at the La beach, organized by Moscow 1 entertainment and powered by Ghana�s power station, Radio Gold.
Appearing on ETV�s Late Night Celebrity Show on Friday 31st Jan, 2014 to talk about the concert, the host, Dzifa Affanie, asked Eric how he gets inspired to write his songs. Eric replied �well I don�t write my songs. Sometimes I get the songs and the rhythms while smoking and drinking.�
The host followed up; do you still drink at your age? �I used to drink but stopped about 5 years ago. I used to drink Guinness a lot but stopped because I once went to urinate and nothing came out. I went to the doctor and I was told I have gall stones. Since then, I stopped drinking Guinness� Eric said.
Shocked, Dzifa asked Eric what he smokes; �I smoke what takes people to jail. What is that? Dzifa asked. �Yes I smoke what people smoke and go to jail. I smoke ganja. Yes I smoke ganja a lot� Eric Donaldson revealed.
Dzifa asked Eric if the smoking of ganja should be legalized and Eric said �smoking of ganja should be legalized.� Dzifa made the point that ganja is not good and so should not be legalized but Eric reiterated �ganja should be legalized.
�It is good for some and not good for others. Some people can ride bicycles but others can�t. Some drive bicycles and crush but others don�t. Those who crush don�t have what it takes to use the bicycles. I smoke ganja. It�s good! It brings out creativity from the head� Eric said.
Eric went further to reveal that at age 66, he�s given birth to 7 children with 5 different women. He described marriage �as a life sentence� hence, his decision of not marrying any of the women he had children with. He also said at age 66, he has many girlfriends and even currently, he is dating a 19 year old girl. Finally, Eric declared that he does not care what people say about him after his death.
