King Kaka had a candid chat with Business Daily<\/em>, revealing how his outlook on life changed dramatically after being hospitalised for four months. Despite having a healthy bank account, he realised that money couldn’t buy his health.<\/p>\n

When asked if it’s possible for someone to have it all, King Kaka replied: “Yes, but balance is key. My health scare – over four months of hospitalisation – taught me to value life more, work less, and enjoy time with loved ones.”<\/p>\n

He added, “I was a crazy workaholic\u2014now, I don\u2019t work on Mondays and Thursdays. I was a slave to money but I realised it is never enough. Now I hang out, go on road trips, and travel. This year, I am taking two vacations; one in Rwanda and the other in the US. When I was hospitalised, I realised that no matter how much money you have, it is nothing. I could not walk, nor eat, but I had money. And it could not help me. Now I live.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“It is experiencing love and spending time with those who matter. I am intentional with family and friends. I hang out with my wife, and children and do movies with friends,” he explained<\/div>\n

King Kaka’s wife, Nana Owiti, gave a heartfelt account of the hard times she endured while her husband battled a prolonged illness between late 2021 and early 2022.<\/div>\n

Nana recalled how the rapper used to wear a hat to avoid questions about his health. She revealed that her husband couldn’t sit for more than three minutes because of his brittle bones.<\/p>\n

“We had just left the hospital, so you can imagine how long the days and nights were before this. @thekingkaka could barely sit in that chair for three minutes. His bones were so weak. I don’t know about you, but I know God exists because we felt His love, He touched our hands and we saw His face in His own time. If you’re going through a hard time, hang in there. It will pass. Calm down and the storm will pass. Love you,” she wrote on her Instagram.<\/p>\n

In January 2022, King Kaka revealed on social media that doctors had given him 30 days to live after he had been hospitalised for over four months.<\/p>\n

“X-rays showed I had cavities in my lungs and they gave me 30 days to live. That was four months ago,” he wrote on Instagram.<\/p>\n

He also mentioned that he lost 33kg in three months due to several misdiagnoses. “I had to relearn how to eat. It was so bad that I would take a spoonful of food and chew it for almost 30 minutes because I felt like throwing up,” he shared.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
