My mum was that \u2018This is good, that is not\u2019, \u2018Don\u2019t do this or don\u2019t do that.\u2019 So until you\u2019re about 22 years old, you don\u2019t have the right to decide for yourself. Even to choose a partner at that age, you don\u2019t have the right,\u201d he indicated.<\/p>\n<p>When asked whether he is still afraid of ladies, the rock star said, \u201cNow no,\u201d after a bit of hesitation.<\/p>\n<p>The 2019 Vodafone Ghana  Awards (VGMA) Artiste of the Year further said that at the age of 16, he had a girl who was harassing him and that he would not consider her as a girlfriend.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Kuami-Eugene-on-Joy-Prime2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"I used to be scared of ladies, but now... - Kuami Eugene\" class=\"wp-image-10032257066 lazy\" title=\"I used to be scared of ladies, but now... - Kuami Eugene\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>There have been constant talks about Kuami Eugene\u2019s constantly changing looks, but the highlife and Afrobeat singer-songwriter is not perturbed.<\/p>\n<p>Some have suggested that the phenomenon may affect the brand of the 27-year-old artiste.<\/p>\n<p>He added that, \u201cWhere I come from you don\u2019t decide for me. I do what I like because I came here alone. My mum is the only person who can actually decide for me, and probably my dad. I mean and Almighty God\u2026Besides her (my mum); I\u2019m past 20; any decision I make in life now should be because I want to make that decision. It shouldn\u2019t be because someone somewhere won\u2019t be okay with it.

Imagine I wake up and go to the mall, and nobody says \u2018Rockstar.\u2019 I will ask myself if I didn\u2019t sleep well.
