Afro beat singer Seun Kuti has said that he will no longer buy expensive clothes for his children as they quickly outgrow them and at the end of the day, the clothes turn out to be a waste of money.

He decided to rant after his daughter can no longer fit into an expensive dress he recently bought for her and according to him, judging the cost of the dress, it is supposed to grow alongside the girl

The singer then went ahead to mention that the expensive clothing and brands Africans go for is more or less comparable to modern day slavery.

“I remember this day very vividly. Never buying expensive clothes for my kids. Can’t tell u how much I bought that effing dress she’s wearing. These brands are sucking the life out of black people!!

The attachment to the ‘brand’ and ‘branding’ still has the same effect as slavery trust me. Gucci gang naaaah more like Gucci’s slave. Well back to my personal rant. Now I asked @chefyeide for it and she says. Haba she is four now she can’t fit in it anymore, whaaaaaaat really? For that price this dress should grow with @adarakuti if that’s not the case GET THE SAX.
