Lee Scratch Perry Asks Fans To Stop Buying Him Weed

March 11, 2019 By Roland Lundberg

Iconic Reggae genius Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry asked fans to stop offering him marijuana as a gift after his live performances but rather get him mirrors for him to decorate his outfits with. He posted his request on Twitter:

AS YOU KNOW YOU CAN ALWAYS MEET ME BACKSTAGE AFTER THE SHOW, BUT PLEASE DON’T BRING ME ANY GREENS! I USED TO STASH IT SOMEWHERE, FORGET AND HAD PROBLEMS BY COSTOMS! BETTER BRING ME LITTLE MIRRORS THAT I ALWAYS USE FOR DECORATING MY OUTFITS! HAPPY TO SEE YOU ALL SOON!

Perry was a habitual marijuana smoker until 2014 when he revealed that he had stopped smoking. As Reggae In Seattle has reported previously, Perry is scheduled to release his next album ‘Rainford’ on May 11, alongside his long-time collaborator and friend Adrian Sherwood.

“It’s the most intimate album Lee has ever made, but at the same time the musical ideas are very fresh. I’m extremely proud of what we’ve come up as a piece of work,” Sherwood said.

Sharing Is Caring!!
