Brymo explains why he went semi-nude for his music video and his performance in London

Nigerian Singer, Olawale Ashimi, aka Brymo, got people talking when he first released a music video where his butts were all over the screen and when he did same in a performance in London.

In an interview with Punch, Brymo said, “That was the way our forefathers used to dress before the arrival of the West. As a matter of fact, some months ago, a picture circulated on the Internet of a wealthy Igbo farmer who dressed that way in 1930. I just wanted to remind people of our past. It surprises me that people are shocked whenever I dress that way. That was the same way I dressed in the video for my song, Heya. In this part of the world, we are mostly consumers; not creators. If the advanced world should come here and take all of their technologies, we would be left naked.

However, I appreciate the people who follow my music and see it as a form of artistic expression. Those are the people I do this for. For those who don’t like it; sorry, I don’t know what to do about that.”

He took me as a brother from day one and he has been very instrumental to the growth of my career.”

Kanye West deleted his social media for health reasons

Kanye West deleted his social media – again – and according to PEOPLE, “Kanye got to the point where he realized his rants were becoming unhealthy. This is why he deleted his account.

West, who has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, recently revealed he’s off his medication following his lengthy off-air, pro-Trump rant at Saturday Night Live and his controversial tweet about the 13th Amendment.

When he gets into these Twitter rants, it’s very difficult for him to stop. It’s like an obsession and it actually affects his life. He knows it’s not healthy, so he wants to take things down a notch,” the report says.
