British singer, songwriter and pianist Elton John is not keeping his mouth shut regarding the legalisation of marijuana.
As part of Time magazine’s coverage of Icon of the Year, the iconic musician discussed his opinions on cannabis legalisation in some US and Canadian states.
He insisted, “I think it’s addictive.” It results in other medications. Additionally, when you’re high—which I have been—you don’t think clearly.
John approaches it from a position of having been sober for a long time.
“He sponsors Eminem.” According to the article, he planned English music singer Robbie Williams’ initial stay in treatment.
The late George Michael, who battled substance abuse before passing away in 2016 from heart and liver problems, is one artist he regrets he was unable to assist. His age was 53.
When John tried to help Michael get sober, he stated, “It’s hard to tell someone that they’re being an a**hole, and it’s hard to hear.” “I finally decided to acknowledge that I’m acting like an a**hole.”
According to Bernie Taupin, John’s long-time writing partner, “I was terrified for him” while John was addicted to narcotics. It was dreadful.
Taupin remarked, “A lot of the work that we did during his worst moments wasn’t the best of both of us.” “Until he truly found himself, I was unable to devote any creative time to writing about him; after that, it was simpler for me to think about it.”
