He told fans that from now on, his name should be addressed with a formal title of respect.
In the clip, Mr Eazi gestured emphatically as he pointed out that the greying hair sets him apart from his peers.
He stated that the visible signs of ageing mean he is no longer on the same level as others his age, and he wants that difference acknowledged whenever his name is mentioned.
In a humorous tone, the singer told fans to add honourifics to his name and address him as "sir Eazi" henceforth, as he sees the silver strands as a symbol of growth.
"Now you guys have to add 'sir' to my name because I'm not anybody's mate. Look at this. No be small thing. So when you see me now, say, 'sir Eazi'"
Mr Eazi rose to fame with hits such as Skin Tight and Pour Me Water, which earned him international recognition. Beyond music, he has built a reputation as a songwriter and entrepreneur.
In 2025, he married actress and fashion influencer Temi Otedola, daughter of billionaire businessman Femi Otedola, in a series of private ceremonies held in Monaco, Dubai, and Iceland.
