About the Item
“In Africa, Yoruba land to be precise where I grew up the nourishing attitude of Omoluwabi, our facial looks is been used to define us as a person, a guy with ear piercing and dreadlocks on his head being looked at as a thug, frauds tars, and so on,
Meanwhile, these guys are a cool and calm-hearted person
Though there are guys like these that are truly counted in the act not all of them are like that
Good and God fearing youth still exist”
(Written by the Artist)
