Ghanaian musician Kuami Eugene has opened up about public perception and the challenges of navigating social media opinions.
Speaking on Joy Prime’s Changes program hosted by Roselyn Felli, monitored by MyNewsGh, the talented artiste shared his thoughts on how he is perceived both online and offline.
“In reality, I’m actually loved. You love me, right? I love you guys, too,” he said to the live audience while smiling.
However, he was quick to contrast this reality with the negativity he occasionally encounters on social media. “Not entirely, not on social media, but in reality, I’m actually loved.”
The Kuami Eugene also reflected on people’s misconceptions about him, saying: “Trust me, I’ve had conversations with people, and they think I’m that aggressive, hardcore kind of guy. But personally, I don’t think I’m like that.”
Felli affirmed his sentiments, adding that those who judge him harshly likely don’t know him personally.
Kuami Eugene noted that platforms like TikTok amplify these misconceptions, explaining how even casual users can wield significant influence.
“TikTok gives everyone leverage. There’s no big difference between a normal blogger and a girl on TikTok. Sometimes these young girls even have more numbers than your bloggers,” he remarked.
Despite the challenges, Kuami Eugene expressed immense gratitude for the love he received from his fans.
“Thank you guys for the love. The love is amazing,” he said, reinforcing his appreciation for those who truly know and support him.
