Ghanaian rapper, E.L has said he never worked as a delivery guy in the United States.
E.L. revealed in an interview in April that he had to start working as a food delivery driver in the United States at one point in order to survive.
He claims that even though he is one of the most well-known rappers this nation has ever produced, things have not always been happy.
However, in a recent interview on Hitz FM, E.L claimed that his team pushed him to create a social stunt for trends.
“It was more like an attention brag from myself. Actually it was influenced by some few people around me,” he said.

In the interview on 3Music TV, the 2016 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) Artiste of the Year said that there was a time he had to work as a food delivery man in the US just to survive.
He continued by saying that his time in the United States had taught him the value of humility.
“Time teaches you so many valuable lessons and it changes you, especially when you go through a few things. I’ve passed through before. There was a point in time in the States I had to start doing food delivery. Yeah, it was that deep. I delivered food door to door just to keep myself going,” he disclosed in the interview.
E.L added: “I’ve actually passed through things and that stuff teaches you things like humility. So anytime I see an artist and they come to me for advice the first thing I tell them is cool down, you know see anything yet,”
E.L concluded by advising artists who are currently successful to remain humble and grounded.
