Ghanaian musician Mr. Drew has opened up about the challenges and the inspiration behind his signature bald look. Speaking in a recent interview on Daybreak Hitz with DJ Slim, Mr. Drew shared the unique experiences that come with maintaining a bald head.
The musician explained that having a bald head comes with its own set of challenges, particularly when it comes to exposure to the sun. “We can’t really walk in the sun because ego really blaze the brain, yeah man,” he said, using Pidgin English to highlight the discomfort.
Due to this, Mr. Drew prefers to avoid daytime video shoots. “I don’t like shoots during the day, I remember like if we get shoots during the day, ano like am. Chale, edey make my head dey ache. Coz the sun shines direct, edey cool your brain. Chale, ano fit,” he added.
On a lighter note, Mr. Drew also shared the benefits of his bald look, saying, “Bald cut – easy going. Barbers no dey chop my money coz me naa Adey shave my head. If you go chop my money, ebe sake of my beard.”
When asked about the inspiration behind his decision to go bald, the musician explained that he wanted to stand out in the music industry. “I wanted something that would stand out,” he said. His choice to shave his head was a conscious effort to carve out a unique identity, especially in an industry where dreadlocks and other hairstyles are popular.
Interestingly, Mr. Drew’s bald look is not the result of hair loss, but rather a personal choice. He regularly shaves his head and can grow his hair back whenever he chooses.
