Richard Brown, widely known as Osebo the Zaraman, a renowned boutique owner and socialite, has revealed the reasons behind his decision to stop styling highlife musician Kuami Eugene.
According to Osebo, there was an incident during the shooting of a music video where he suggested an outfit for Kuami Eugene. However, when the time came for the musician to wear the recommended attire, he chose to alter it without Osebo’s knowledge. This action did not sit well with Osebo, leading to their professional separation.
During an interview with Hitz FM, Osebo mentioned that despite no longer being Kuami Eugene’s stylist, he has noticed an improvement in the musician’s fashion sense, possibly influenced by the public feedback following their parting ways.
“So I invited Kuame Eugene to my shop myself, and that was when he was going to do ‘wish me well video’. We took a lot of pictures with the kind of outfit I wanted him to do the video in. If Kuame wanted to use another dress for the video or another style, he should have told me. ‘Nana, no, I want a white top, but I want to remove the hand’ that maybe I would have given him one. I invited you to my shop.
“This is what you want to do willingly; I did it. So go straight and do what I ask you to do. When I sit back and watch the video, I will be happy. But when you do it upside down, I will not enjoy it. So I will not even continue to do it again. That is how I backed off from Kuami Eugene.”
When he was asked how Kuami Eugene disregarded his instruction, he retorted, “The hand was removed; that was a posh T-shirt. Well, maybe he was young by then so he was trying to be more stylish. Now he’s doing well, unlike before.”
Osebo the Zaraman commented when he was asked to give his opinion on Kuami Eugene being chastised for the way he dresses and appears in public.
