Rapper Jae Cash and media personality Edna, while on ZMB Talks, visited the one roomed house where Jae Cash lived with his mother as he recounted sleeping in the kitchen/living room in Chawama from the age of 6.
The rapper could not hold his tears as nostalgia hit, reminiscing on old times when the rapper was still a youngling being raised by his mother, who was a teacher in Kuomboka neighborhood, Chawama, teaching at her cousin’s school.
The rapper shade tears as Edna handed him a white handkerchief. The emotions-struck rapper said, “Sorry, I haven’t cried in a minute. Oh my God, I never thought I’d cry on camera.”
After the rapper had his emotional moment, the team proceeded to visit the rapper’s primary school, where he did his baby class to seventh grade. The rapper did his primary education at Green Carpet School, a school owned by his aunt and where his mother used to teach.
The team also visited shops where he used to buy popcorns, the famous Kuomboka market, a studio owned by Toxido where Jae Cash’s career kicked off, recieved free studio time, recognised by KB and getting signed to K Amy music.
From there, the team then went to visit the place called Modbo, where the rapper used to wash cars with his friends, earning a few coins to buy himself snacks and other necessities.
Kids in John Leing joined rapper Jae Cash, who was with Edna and ZMB Talks in the area as they traced the rapper’s roots. The gathering turned into a raping session as they kids rapped along to Jae Cash’s Chakwa Muzimai featuring Dizmo and JC Kalinks, setting up a happy and light moment for the young fans who recited his verse word for word.
The visit saw several people excited with crowds filling up streets as people followed, trying to get a glimpse of him as a superstar who was born and bred in their neighborhood. A walk Jae Cash hoped would inspire the young ones in the area and for them to know that if one of them made it, so can they.
