Singer Alien Skin’s career is on steroids going by the awards, concert bookings and buzz he has received in a matter of months. The latest is, media streaming platform YouTube has awarded him with a silver plaque after he notched 100,000 subscribers.
This is arguably the fastest a local artiste has earned the plaque considering the Sitya Danger hitmaker opened his YouTube channel on January 14, 2023.
Alien, real name Patrick Mulwana, shared the photo of the plaque online, bragging about his numbers.
“Numbers don’t lie. Thanks for subscribing and listening to my music! Just passed 100k subs.”
He also quipped that he thought it came with money.
