John Chapple for New York Daily News Andre Johnson, who performs under the stage name Christ Bearer with the Wu-Tang affiliated group Northstar, chopped off his own penis in April. 
 
 The Wu-Tang Clan-affiliated rapper who cut off his own penis in a drug-fueled delirium last April is rebutting reports that surgeons re-attached his private part. 
 
 "Doctors didn't reattach it, but I definitely have some penis left," Northstar rapper Christ Bearer, whose real name is Andre Johnson, told the Daily News Monday. 
 
 "I always say a penis is a penis. And the sensation is still there. I definitely still get extremely aroused if I see a beautiful woman," he continued. "That being said, I definitely believe sex is for mortals, and I am god. So this is a blessing, not a curse." 
 
 Johnson, 41, said he wasn't trying to commit suicide when he cut himself and jumped off the second-story balcony of his condo in North Hollywood on April 16. 
 
 John Chapple for New York Daily News Johnson says wasn't trying to commit suicide when he cut himself and jumped off the second-story balcony of his condo in North Hollywood on April 16. 
 
 "By no means was I trying to kill myself. I was under the influence of PCP. It's a drug that I had stopped doing for years, but I just got back from Ohio and got back into that lifestyle for a few days. It definitely was not wise," he told The News. 
 
 Johnson said he had been studying some literature about monks and vasectomies and was extremely high when he took the knife to his genitals and jumped. 
 
 "I was lucky I was only on the second floor. If I was any higher, it would have been a tragedy. The height didn't make any difference to me. I wasn't aware of the height," he said. "I was so happy to wake up in the hospital."

 ndillon@nydailynews.com ||||| Rapper Andre Johnson made headlines this past April when he cut off his own penis and jumped off the second story of a North Hollywood building. 
 
 He survived, and on Sunday, he spoke to E! News exclusively about why he cut off his penis, noting that this is the first time he's spoken truthfully about the incident. 
 
 "Yes, I was using drugs that night, but I was in complete control," said the rapper, who also goes by the name of Christ Bearer. "I cut it off because that was the root of all my problems. My solution to the problem was the realization that sex is for mortals, and I am a god...Those kinds of activities got me into trouble, and I came here to be a god."
– Andre Johnson, the Wu-Tang Clan-affiliated rapper who severed his own penis in April before jumping off a building, has explained his actions ... sort of. "I cut it off because that was the root of all my problems," the 41-year-old rapper, who also uses the name Christ Bearer, tells E!. "My solution to the problem was the realization that sex is for mortals, and I am a god. ... Those kinds of activities got me into trouble, and I came here to be a god." He also spoke to the New York Daily News, noting that he had been reading about monks and vasectomies at the time. Oh, and probably coincidentally, he admits he was on drugs, too. "But I was in complete control," he insists, and "I didn't want to kill myself." He also notes, contrary to some media reports, that doctors couldn't re-attach the member. "But, it still gets hard, the little bit that I got. I still got some penis that works," he says. "I definitely still get extremely aroused if I see a beautiful woman." But, despite his previous remarks, he adds, "I wasn't having that much sex up to that point anyways. My days of reproducing are over. But now I'm a reborn man." As for why he jumped, "That was just my response to the demons. They were doing their best to get to me, but being alive solidified my thoughts," he says. "I'm alive, penis or no penis." He's speaking out for the first time since the incident because "the truth must be told," he says. What's next for him? "I love comedy," he says. "I'm going to do stand up along with making music."
