According to Oyo, he became “corrupted” and fell into a lifestyle marked by drinking, illegal substance, womanizing, lying, and other vices. His wake-up call came when he discovered that all his money was gone. “Tinignan ko ’yung ATM ko, P2,000. Sa kakainom, sa kakabili ng droga, ’yung mga ganoon, naubos ’yun. Binenta ko lahat. Binenta ko lahat ng sasakyan, doon ako natuto,” he shared. He added that the downfall forced him to hit rock bottom: “Kailangan kong madapa ng sobra sobra. Kinailangan kong humampas ’yung mukha ko sa putik bago ko ma-realize na hindi ko pala kaya ’to.”
