Rapper Bishop Nehru went viral after he appeared to shoot up heroin in his new video.
At the beginning of his video, “Heroin Addiction,” fans see a message saying: “On March 21, 2022, I decided to film myself trying HEROIN to note its short-term side effects. Here’s what happened… [please DO NOT try this at home.]”
The rapper also puts a disclaimer on the video:
“DISCLAIMER: THIS VIDEO WAS MADE FOR ART PURPOSES SPECIFICALLY! WE AT THE NEHRUVIAN FAMILY DO NOT CONDONE OR PROMOTE THE USE OF HARD DRUGS, BUT WE SUPPORT & SPEAK FOR THOSE EFFECTED WHO MAY NOT HAVE A VOICE FOR THEMSELVES. IF YOU EVER NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO HIT ME IN THE DISCORD. THANK YOU.”
Neither of the messages could prepare his fans for seeing him pour the powder onto a spoon, heating it and then injecting it. We then see him react to the effects of the drug.
Did he take his art too far?
