Maltese rapper L-Urugan has released a freestyle rap song ‘Sick Country’ in which he urges the public to open its eyes to a growing crisis of Flakka, the so-called “zombie drug”. 

“Flakka has entered Malta just as K2 [a type of synthetic marijuana] has, the situation is getting worse and we are no longer a relaxed place,” he raps. “Users are dying en route to hospital, and their parents have to be told their sons have died because they suffered the consequences of trying out the substance.”

In his song, L-Urugan says it is ridiculous synthetic drugs like Flakka are legal while marijuana is not.   

“All weed does is make you feel happy and relaxed, it can solve problems and break systems,” he raps. “Can you explain this situation? I can’t understand it, I just can’t fucking understand how so-called experts are so willing to preach to us about a substance they have never tried themselves.

“If you’ve never driven a car, how can you teach me how to drive? Id you’ve never smoked weed, how do you know what it feels like to smoke? The Maltese population is still at adolescence stage…you fools, open your eyes!”

Flakka, also called ‘gravel’ and the ‘Devil’s Drug’, is a cheap synthetic ‘bath salt’ that comes in powder form and can be inhaled, smoked or injected. It gives users a similar but cheaper high to cocaine, but its effects can be much more dangerous – they have been described as a mix between the stimulant effects of cocaine and ice and the hallucinogenic effects of LSD. 

Users have been seen running naked through traffic, throwing themselves at car windows or off balconies, and attempting to perform sex acts on trees.

The Malta Police Force yesterday confirmed with Lovin Malta they found a synthetic drug resembling the “zombie drug” Flakka back in 2015.

Lovin Malta has received unconfirmed reports of people in Paceville, who have shown similar symptoms to those under the influence of Flakka.
