Dj Sbu laughs off comments over his long hair and beard
According to the Daily Sun, DJ Sbu posted a video on social media on Friday, 12 August 2022, telling people to leave him alone because there are more important things going on in the country about which they should be concerned.
“Apparently people are saying I don’t bath. Guys, come on. There are more serious things we could be discussing in this country. Leave my ntshebe (beard) and hair alone. I have been working for many years guys and I don’t have anything to prove. I’m good.”
This comes after Twitter users chastised him for “looking like a hobo.” Soon after, asking his friends and family to stage an intervention.
He advised his fans to ignore his hair and focus on the content he shared with them. He advised them to watch his moves and how he plans to become a billionaire. The 45-year-old also says not combing and not cutting his hair and beard is his personal choice.
“It doesn’t mean that when one lets their hair or beard grow, they don’t bath. On a serious note, for those who care about me, I’m good and healthy. I’m on point. My team is okay, my family is good, children are awesome, business is growing and we are working.”
The businessman’s new enigmatic look first went viral on social media in July 2022 when Twitter users shared a picture of the MoFaya founder in a didgy poncho top and unkempt dreadlocks.
