Elijah Kitaka Defends His Fashion Choices: ‘Style Comes Naturally to Me’

Singer Elijah Kitaka seems destined to face constant criticism over his fashion sense, but he is fully aware of it and remains completely unbothered.

His style is a daring mix of knee-length Kitaka Shorts, loose-fitting distressed jeans, vests, and an arsenal of accessories like nose rings, bangles, and bold jewelry that split opinions down the middle.

Some admire his audacity, hailing him as a trendsetter. Others, however, cringe at his choices, labeling him a “mad man” and insisting his outfits defy any definition of fashion.

Love it or hate it, one thing is certain. Kitaka has no intention of changing his wardrobe to please anyone.

When pressed about the roots of his distinctive style, he told Sanyuka TV that it comes naturally to him.

His love for piecing together outfits dates back to childhood when he was highly creative with clothes.

Now, he simply wakes up, throws something together, and it effortlessly comes out the way it does.

The memes and mockery that flood social media about his looks do not faze him in the slightest.

“I see what people say, but it does not bother me. Let them talk. All I will say is I am not mad. A mad person would not be appearing on national tv, doing interviews, and living the way I do,” he said.

His response is a sharp clapback, rooted in the reality of his success.

The Swangz Avenue star has turned his fashion sense into a viral trend on TikTok and gained recognition from fashion heavyweights like Abryanz.

For Kitaka, fashion is more than just clothing. It is a declaration of self-love and African pride.
