I Could Not Wear “Slit and Kaba” At The Beach - Eazzy

Hiplife artiste, Eazzy, has dismissed criticisms from the public that she has resorted to sex appeal and provocative costumes in her music videos to promote her songs.

The criticisms came about because of Eazzy’s outfit in her latest music video, Burning Love featuring 4X4, which some have described as too revealing and provocative. 

In an interview with Showbiz last Friday, the Emergency hitmaker described the condemnation as humorous and misplaced since she had never been conservative in her dressing and costumes since she entered the music industry. 

She added that the public was being hypocritical in their condemnation since in her opinion, the outfit she used in the Burning Love video was not overly sensual and she was well covered although it was made from a sheer fabric. 

“Since day one, I have always shown skin on stage and my music videos so why the negative comments now? If you look back at my stage performances and music videos when I started, you would notice that most of the dresses were much more revealing than what I wore in the Burning Love music video,” she said.
