“They say my beard is trending again. Guys, what's wrong with my beard and my hair? Do you guys love me any less? Apparently people are saying I don't bath. Guys, come on, please leave me alone. There are more serious things to discuss in this country. Leave my beard and hair alone.”
Speaking to TshisaLIVE previously, DJ Sbu said he was on a journey to learn about the history of Africa.
“When they say what you look like on the outside is a reflection of what is happening on the inside, I'm also going through that journey. I'm learning a lot about myself, African history and people who preached black consciousness. A lot of black consciousness Africans embraced their hair. It's evolution, growth and becoming wise and smarter.”
