Camidoh emphasized that his goal was to share positive stories rather than negative ones, and he remains unapologetic despite the backlash. He explained, "I don't have regrets. It's an ongoing story, and like any story, it unfolds in phases. Just as you can’t expect to know your entire future instantly, the same applies to understanding the full context of my experiences."

He acknowledged that people's reactions are influenced by their own perspectives, and he doesn’t take the criticism personally.Camidoh also believes that smoking, while often viewed negatively, should be evaluated on an individual basis, and its impact can vary from person to person.

Despite this turbulent period, Camidoh has channeled his emotions into his new track, ‘Nothing Last Forever,’ which reflects his growth and aims to offer solace to others facing similar struggles.
