“People have actually recommended that I should do some of these things [drugs] so that I will go wild [on stage].I won’t be doing that. I don’t think I can do that,” he said.
Safo stated in the interview with Andy Dosty that many people struggle with his introverted personality because they don’t recognize that people’s temperaments differ from one another.
Safo has received harsh criticism for his sense of style and lackluster performance on stage since he gained popularity with his song “Akokoa” earlier this year.
