Quit Music
“You after being in the industry for some time, felt like things had not picked up the way I wanted so I taught of quitting music and go to Canada where my mother stays, because a times you have a name but still struggling to meet your basic things kama kulipa rent, but before I could settle on what next I prayed to God as asked for one more song, saying to myself if this doesn’t work, then I call it quits. In September 2017, I released Nadeka and surprisingly it landed on a very good reception. At the same time I met Mike Mutenyo who is know my manager and he promised to help me push my brand to the next level. And since then things have been working out perfectly well” said Guardian Angel.

“Unajua life ilikuwa ngumu kiasi na hiyo time ndo alikuwa tu solo-provider, so seeing that I decided kutoka home. While on the streets, I was arrested and taken to an approved school, where he spend almost a year. so kuna siku they asked if kuna wale wanajua where their parents, to speak put so that they can be reconciled by their family. I took that chance I took them to Kibera where mum was staying and then after I was taken to a juvenile court and allowed to go home. It took me sometime to adapt to the society and then after I went back to school” said Guardian Angel.
