Afrobeats sensation Mr Eazi, born Oluwatosin Ajibade, has made headlines today after unveiling a stunning dramatic new look, a sleek, shiny bald head.
The 34-year-old singer, known for his signature dreadlocks that have been a staple of his bohemian style for years, proudly showcased his freshly shaved dome in a viral video, sending social media into a frenzy of memes, admiration, and playful speculation.
In the clip, which has already racked up thousands of views on X (formerly Twitter), Mr Eazi grins confidently at the camera while running his hand over his smooth scalp. "Marriage don humble me, time to delete the hairline evidence," he quipped in the post's caption, nodding to his high-profile union with actress and philanthropist Temi Otedola earlier this year.
The transformation comes just months after their lavish three-part wedding in May 9, 2025, which trended globally and featured celebrity guests from Burna Boy to billionaire dad Femi Otedola.
Fans and followers were quick to react, with the video sparking a wave of humorous commentary. "Heads of States across neighboring African Countries green with envy, as Mr Eazi shows off his new hairstyle with zero hair 🙆🏽♂️👀," tweeted entertainment blogger @remedy_blog, while @SirAlexthomson joked, "bro went full Kojima bald overnight 😂😂."
Others speculated on the motivation, with @hopefortv suggesting, "People are saying it ought to be his wife's request 😂." One user, @MglgRichie, couldn't resist: "If it's not dandruffs and hairline pushed from Edo State to Lagos then how 😂😭."
Mr Eazi's dreadlocks, which he sported since around 2017, weren't just a fashion choice they were a point of intrigue from the start.
During a heartfelt wedding speech in September, Femi Otedola revealed his initial skepticism upon meeting the then-dreadlocked artist: "I saw his dreadlocks. I looked at him and I said, well, but something struck me that day," the billionaire shared, crediting a "spiritual conviction" for warming to the man who would become his son-in-law.
The locks even drew firebrand comments back in 2018, when Central Bank Governor Godwin Emefiele famously called them "irresponsible" during a bankers' meeting presentation.
This isn't the first time Mr Eazi has played with his image to keep fans guessing. His evolution from curly fades to dyed dreads mirrored his rise from Ghanaian club scenes to global stages, blending Banku music with hits like "Skin Tight" and "Leg Over."
But going bald? It's a clean-slate vibe that aligns with his post-wedding glow-up, including whispers of new music and emPawa Africa label expansions.
Whether it's a bid for reinvention or just a practical shave, Mr Eazi's bold move proves he's owning every phase of his life with zero hair regrets.
As one fan put it: "He is so bald oh my god its literally shining." Stay tuned; if this is the prelude to a new album, Afrobeats heads might be in for another earworm.
