Veteran rapper Chiwawa narrates how he now draws inspiration from King Kaka who used to be his errand boy

We have seen it in politics how errand boys turned out to be more successful than their former masters – a case of DP William Ruto and former Lugari MP Cyrus Jirongo. The same is also true of King Kaka and Chiwawa.

Chiwawa met King Kaka back in 2007, the former was a well established rapper while the latter was only a nobody with big dreams.

“The first time I met him… he was just a skinny boy who looked hungry. He was calm and he knew how to engage people in a conversation. He used to tell me he was my fan, and we hit it off well since that first day,” said Chiwawa in a YouTube video.

Studio errand boy

Chiwawa took in King Kaka who served as a studio errand boy before he finally promoted him to a hype-man who engaged the audience before Chiwawa took over to perform.

“The first time I heard Rabbit rap was when we were in Kisumu at a friend’s house and he asked if I wanted to hear him rap. After he did, I told him he no longer had to be a hype-man… that he needed his own shows,” said Chiwawa.

The veteran rapper now draws inspiration from his former errand boy who is doing so well in the industry. Watch the video below:
