Popular musician Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, better known by his stage name Spyro, has admitted that he had a pornography addiction for many years.
In a recent interview with Echoo Room, he revealed this.
Contrary to rumors that he berates his colleagues for leading impoverished lives, he insisted that his purpose is not to spread religion through the secular music industry.
The singer of “Who’s Your Guy,” however, argued that artists can still profit from good music.
I battled pornography for years, he admitted. I’m not perfect. These things happen to me. I’m in this room with you all. I don’t claim to be saintly. Everybody is not at all holy.

I’m not coming to tell them they need to be holy, either. Like you, I am a human being. But I’m only trying to be as clear as possible.
