Don Jazzy and Doyin during 'Doyin's Corner'

Here's how the conversation between Don Jazzy and Doyin went during the interview:

DON JAZZY: I remember the first time that people saw that I used to smoke.

DOYIN: You smoke?

DON JAZZY: I used to smoke cigarettes. I quit, a long time ago. I didn't think it was that bad, I didn't think it was anything bad like that. Okay I'm harming myself or whatever. But that day, I think it was Access Mavin concert or something. They were videoing me. I was trying to adjust my eyeglass. As I just dey adjust the eyeglass like this, the cigar just show. Heweee! My timeline was agog! "Oh my god! He smokes!" It just looked like as if you just caught Jesus Christ watching porn. I swear! That day I felt like why are these people shouting like this? It's not that crazy.

DOYIN: Were they mad at you?

DON JAZZY: Ah they were mad oh! All the blogs, just type it "Don Jazzy smoking cigarette", you will see it. Ah! One woman saw me. That time that I used to smoke, you know when you take long flights, and when you now come down from the plane, because you've not smoked inside the plane, as you come down from the plane, normally we'd just dey rush down, looking for outside, just to get out of that plane and just go and light cigar. So one woman like this, immediately I came out of the plane like this, the woman was pushing trolley. One fine American woman, and she just passed me like this and just saw me smoking, she said so disappointedly "Oh my god! Oh my god! My husband is such a big fan of yours." I said, "thank you very much". She said "No, don't do that. Don't do that. Ah! I can't believe this." Ha! I felt very bad oh. I felt very bad.

Omo fuck that shit, it's not good. Smoking is not good because now that I don’t smoke, when I come across smokers… smokers, you people are smelling. All of you that smoke you are stinking. Nobody will tell you. I don't know, I think that all these smoking packs that they use to put there, all those long gazers, all those things, it's not helping anybody to quit oh. Just right there, you dey smell, on top the pack. Trust me!
