Our snoops have learnt that Uganda’s youngest rapper Patrick Ssenyonjo alias Fresh Kid these days moves around with bodyguards(plain-clothed operatives) reportedly assigned to him by the Ministry of Gender Permanent Secretary, Pius Bigirimana.
This could be aimed at protecting the budding 7 year old rapper who is currently selling like hot cake, or even to ensure that he only performs performs during day and out of school hours as per the agreement with the ministry and his management.
It is alleged that the ‘Bambi’ hit maker was recently punched by one of the kids as he performed somewhere.
These bodyguards were seen around Fresh Kid at the Teeniez Buzz Fair at Lugogo UMA and the Mothers’ day fete at Kati Kati on Sunday .
Remember the fast-rising rapper gained a nomination in International Award in the Carolina Music Video Awards 2019( category of the best video for the month of April)slated for July 20th 2019 at the NASCAR Hall of Fame High Octane Theater in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The video for his song titled ‘Bambi’ which was a dedication to Minister for youth Nakiwala Kiyingi as a request to allow him sing despite his young age, seems to have yielded him fruits.
Other Ugandans that got a nomination include Feffe Bussi for his song ‘Yes, No’, Lydia Jazmine for ‘You & Me’, and Ykee Benda for ‘Singa’.
Several Americans are also nominated in the same category and it will be such a great feat if any of the Ugandans can notch the prize.
We can only keep our fingers crossed!
