Towel hate? Speedy shows up the haters
Singer and songwriter Speedy has‚ for years‚ been held up to ridicule for always having his signature white towel with him in public. However‚ he has made it clear that he won’t take the snub lying down.Taking to Instagram‚ Speedy lambasted everyone who has mocked him for always carrying a towel over his left shoulder and urged people to rather do their research instead of criticising him for the trend‚ which he has adopted from music legends in the US.“With everyone back in SA sweating me for carrying a towel. Legends like KCI and JOJO‚ @sisqo and @rkelly been on that swagg long before I started my career‚” he captioned the snap of K-Ci & JoJo‚ an American R&B duo‚ with towels over their shoulders during an interview.“Now you know I learned from the best. Some people just need to stop being dumb and ignorant just because you don't understand something it don't mean you gotta criticise just simply research‚” he added.A photo posted by KING GIFT (@speedythegift) on Apr 19, 2016 at 10:33am PDTTowelMeanwhile‚ Speedy has been working on his upcoming album‚ which he says is his ‘best project’ yet.
