Her talents extended beyond television as she enjoyed a long stint with Radio Africa's Homeboyz Radio, where she co-hosted a late-night show alongside Jaymoh Ule Msee and Didge the singer.
What's intriguing about Miss Katiwa's journey is her initial perception of reggae music. She once thought of it as a mere fan's delight.
