In the report, Tekashi wants to make it clear his 'overdose' was NOT connected to any drug use -- not only because he doesn't use drugs -- but, he is on strict probation for his criminal case and is not allowed to consume them anyways.
He says if so, he would be immediately locked back up in prison.
According to Shade Room, the original report of Tekashi's hospitalization came from a site called Gossip In The City, and they confirmed the information and spoke to the rapper detailing the dramatic situation.
