Although she is known for half-naked dressing, she didn\u2019t dress that way when she launched her album recently. And that is why there is the need to know why she sometimes dresses that way before you criticize her- the \u201cBaaba\u201d hitmaker explained.<\/p>\n<p>Dancehall diva, Ebony has received backlashes from many critics for her half-naked fashion style. She however has the massive support of her father, Nana Poku Kwarteng.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We shouldn\u2019t be hypocrites\u2026\u2026. most of those who insult her for dressing half naked are the same people who go to watch her shows\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>When asked if he listens to secular songs, considering the fact that he&#8217;s a gospel musician, he answered in the affirmative. He confirmed he listens to songs by Stonebwoy, Shatta Wale, Sarkodie, Ebony,etc.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, we&#8217;re in a social world.
