Al Bano’s criticism of Damiano David
“Proselytizing cannabis doesn’t seem like a good idea to me. Giving examples of destruction is not the best. The drug equals destruction and it also applies to the joint” this is the concept expressed by Al Bano during an interview with Adnkronos, in which he is asked for a comment following the controversy that arose after the publication of the shot on Instagram by the Roman rocker. The singer from Cellino San Marco continues his reasoning by saying: “Everyone can do what they want in their life, but it’s a shame, especially if you’re a public figure because you encourage those who are still inexperienced to use cannabis”. In this regard, the 80-year-old artist compared his ways of relating to the public, compared to the new generations:
The joint and the nude has now become the language of the new generations singers must shock to attract the attention of their audience. I prefer to show a different, beautiful, interesting reality, in contact with nature and in contact with the sun as it rises and goes to sleep: that’s the real drug’.
