Kuami Eugene’s look had some mixed reactions from fans and netizens. Largely, the style had numerous backlashes from fans. Netizens criticized him for his ‘poor’ fashion sense saying he needs to step-up his style game and even put him against his label mate, KiDi’s top-notch style qualities. Other’s also felt the story behind it was great but its execution was poor.
The big question Which is the rag? Many have been left in a limbo as they question the artiste on this hair do. Is the braided portion the ‘rags’ or the ‘braids? The braids looked very neat but from our part of the world, it is considered as a hairdo for deviants which leaves many confused.Whatever the case, style and fashion is a lot of things but very personal and subjective. Kuami Eugene’s self-expression with his look on the VGMA redcarpet was a unique one.
