‘Burna Boy is not bossy, he is a very gentle guy’ -Keliiy Morgan

Fashion stylist Keliiy Morgan shared his life-changing experience working with Nigerian singer Burna Boy, revealing that the award-winning musician is a gentle person, contrary to his public persona. Keliiy, who has collaborated with several African artists such as Shallipopi, Fireboy, Rema, Stonebwoy, Shatta Wale, and Black Sherif, explained that the Burna Boy encounter left a significant impact on him.

He stated, "I've worked with Burna Boy, Shallipopi, Fireboy, Rema, Stonebwoy, Shatta, Black Sherif. The Burna experience changed my life. He is not bossy like he shows out there. He is actually a very gentle guy who will talk to you when he needs to."

In addition to recounting his encounters with the talented Burna Boy, Keliiy also shed light on the rigorous process behind creating striking outfits for his clients. The stylist explained that he often has to venture out early in the morning, as early as 2, 3, or 4 a.m., to search for unique clothing pieces in Ghana. He explained that finding distinctive couture items in the country can be a challenging task, especially when the goal is to create a remarkable look for a client.

Keliiy noted, "Waking up and being in the market around 2, 3, or 4 a.m. looking for raw pieces because you want to have the best for your client—that’s very stressful. Mind you, we're in Ghana, and it's not easy to find those couture looks, to find very amazing looks, unless you're making them, and making them is not cheap either."

Despite the pressure and demanding nature of his work, Keliiy emphasized that witnessing the final product makes the struggle worthwhile. He said, "Those moments are very tough, but after the work is out, it’s amazing."
