These black artists hit stardom while walking and performing barefoot

Wanluv Kubolor

Born Emmanuel Owusu-Bonsu, he is a Ghanaian musician, film director and cultural icon.

Wanlov is well known for his controversial outfits and strolling around shoeless, a unique style he has embraced for over a decade.

In 2017, he wrote on his Instagram page “10yrs no foot wear…The contact I have with earth energises me, rough terrain stimulates me, dirt soothes me, wetness refreshes me…I remember how places I have been to felt under my feet…how hot or cold it was…textures & consistencies… #barefoot.”
