Kids are blessings. You and I know that. Each parent beams with pride to whatever their kids do and it is always joy to watch them take their first step or hear them utter their first word(s). To the fortunate of Mothers [with all due respect to Mothers anywhere in the world], the first word is often Mama,Mom. Tata is an exception…it happens.
When you are a celebrity, somehow [I think because I have never walked in celebrities shoes even though I have shared countless hours with most of our celebrities----talk about loving my job], parenthood come like a typed letter in summer 1495. Your child becomes an overnight sensation of some sort till they grow up and break loose on their own.
That is the kind of path I feel Nakaaya has had to walk through. It was,at first, the media recorded love with a man from abroad.Unfortunately, he became invisible. That was after Mr.Politician singer had entered politics just to realize few months later that although she liked politics, politics didn’t like her. She changed cards and remained silent like a determined mountain climber who doesn’t want to loose all his energy before reaching on top.
When she became pregnant, the social media helped her to break the news to the fans. She was expecting and she had found a new meaning of life and arguably a renewed purpose[ that is what parenthood is all about]. She could now play her old violin. God is good and she was blessed with a cute “first real love of her life,- a baby boy she now call a Blessing.
Here is a new song from Nakaaya titled Blessing.
I have interviewed Nakaaya before. You can read that interview here.
