Brymo’s Strange Wedding Show Sparks Online Reactions
Popular Nigerian singer Olawale Oloforo, better known as Brymo, is once again trending online, not for a new song, but for his unexpected behavior at a recent wedding in Lagos. The high-profile event featured the union of Abibat Odunbaku and Idris Bello, where Brymo’s presence as a guest performer left guests and social media users buzzing for all the wrong reasons.
Instead of the soulful and emotional tunes many were hoping for, the “Yellow” crooner delivered a performance that many described as awkward, eccentric, and downright puzzling. Dressed in a plain white shirt, brown trousers, and matching boots, Brymo moved around the stage in what some described as a trance-like state.
Online users didn’t hold back their reactions. One user, @infonate, asked mockingly, “Who booked Brymo and didn’t give him the dress code?” Comedian @funnyhen_comedian joined in, joking, “They promise two plates of rice? Why e dey perform like upcomer?”
While his energy confused many, some fans were quick to defend him. “This is art!” wrote Kehinde Olusegun. Another commenter, @TeetoOlayeni, added, “For me, Brymo is an example of separating an artist from their art. That guy makes really good music and is also insane.”
Still, not everyone appreciated the theatrics. @Havilahdivas urged, “Someone take the mic and escort him out,” while @badgirlperch joked about his wild movements, saying, “E remain small e for match the couple head.”
The incident has now sparked wider debates around artistic expression and what is considered appropriate at social gatherings. While Brymo is known for being different, many believe the wedding scene might not have been the right stage for his creative flair.
So, was it performance art or poor judgment?
Was Brymo’s wedding performance inappropriate or artistic freedom?
Opinions are split. Some believe it was a poor fit for a wedding, while others see it as bold artistic expression.
Whether intentional or not, Brymo’s performance has once again made him the talk of the town, highlighting how artists constantly walk the line between creativity and controversy.
