Ringtone Opens Up on Ksh 1Million Music Video, His Karen Residence Being Broken Into and Settling Down Soon

After announcing that he would be retiring from music, controversial gospel singer Ringtone took an about-turn and surprised everyone with an expensive video featuring Christina Shusho.
The single dubbed ‘Tenda Wema’, shows a new side of the singer and according to Ringtone it is the start of a new chapter in his life.
“Honestly, I was about to quit gospel music. I got to a point where I felt that the industry was moving towards the wrong direction. Many gospel singers were fighting each other and scheming for each other’s downfall. I also became a target and twice my Karen residence was broken into and my electronics were stolen. It was a very uncomfortable situation,” Ringtone told Pulse.
“I have been in the music scene for quite some time now and I also felt that I had done my part. As a role model, I am starting a talent search centre to train upcoming musicians and that is the other reason why I was planning to stop singing, not because of politics,” he noted.
For the shoot of ‘Tenda Wema’, Ringtone hired two choppers which set him back Sh 500,000 each for the entire time he used them for the shoot.
“This collabo is different from any other musical piece I have ever done before. It defines the new direction I want to take as an entertainer and gospel singer. I want to do more mature music. I also plan to settle down soon,” Ringtone said.
He also opened up about his dating life. Last year, he made headlines when he announced that he was ready to marry Tanzanian singer Ray C.
He responded saying, “Well, that was then. I know people still want to know if I am dating and whether I am about to settle down. Those are valid questions my fans have been asking. The waiting won’t be too long.”
