“Why was Brymo wearing a G-string?,” the Twitter user had asked.
Responding to the question, the 33-year-old singer pointed out that his choice of G-string was to demonstrate Africa’s actual way of dressing before clothes and other attires were introduced to the continent.
“Because that was the height of advancement in clothing across the continent before others came and gave us real clothes, and we’ve never evolved past that period… take the imported piano and bridges and cars and high rises in our cities and all that’s left is the loincloth,” he wrote on Twitter.
