When Penuel repeated these nasty statements, Sbu laughed hysterically and said:

"They forgot to mention that I taught them how to dress properly," he joked. "You guys were taught by me how to dress fashionably," he laughed.

The star got serious and said it is his personal choice to grow his dreadlocks and that he had always opted to do a neat cut.

"On a serious note, it's just a personal choice to let my hair grow. My whole life, I have had a chiskop. If you ask the boys I went to school with, they will tell you that I always cut my hair. I kind of feel like I never had hair. So, there is nothing wrong with letting my hair grow. It is just a phase that I am going through, and I am fine."

When Penuel asked him if he was going through a midlife crisis, Sbu denied this, saying he is at a happy place and that he felt like a grootman who can deliver wisdom.

"I'm comfortable. I think I do what makes me happy. Leaving my beard unshaven and seeing the grey hairs pop up, I feel like a grootman who can plant some wisdom. I feel free, but it also has to do with the journey that I have been on," he clarified.

Sbu also said he did not intend to leave his hair and beard uncut; it just happened. When he noticed that he looked good, he just let it be.

DJ Sbu sparks outrage over follower count

In a previous report from Briefly News, DJ Sbu spoke about the trend of content creators not making money from their social media platforms. In a recent interview, the DJ said he found it odd when people would have millions of followers, but not a million in their bank accounts.

Social media users were not having it, so they trolled the radio star, slamming him for his unsolicited advice:

"For me, it does not make sense when someone has 100K followers, but you do not have R100,000 in their bank account," Sbu said.
