Last month, during an interview with On-Air Personality, Shopsy of Beat FM London, the Kokomaster disclosed that he is expecting another son when he was asked about how he has been able to deal with the death of his first child.

His words were, “If I told you I thought about it unlike other things you asked me and I told you I am focused and I go in, this was one that broke me. This was just the that it just took the grace of God and a bit of therapy. I think I went for therapy once and I said this no be my style because it was bringing out so many things. I am happy that over time I have been able to channel that into my music, which is more important for me. You haven’t heard any of them yet but very soon…because the most important thing that I believe and pray for is restoration. I know that no matter how many time I tell my wife that everything is okay, God has to give us restoration. I am proud to say that in a few months, I’m going to be a father again.”

Congratz to them.
