He’s managed to stay true to his consistent over the years but according to stans, celebrities, and promoters who knows him at a personal level, always says nice things about him but most importantly about his trait of always being humble regardless of whoever he gets to interact with; he will treat a fan with the same respect he would treat a CEO of some huge PLC company.
