What really inspired Kaleke Kasome?
My cousin was defiled at the age of five. We found her lying in a pool of blood. It was a horrific scene. While at school, I could see the same things happening to children. I decided to hit the studio and record a track highlighting the plight of children.
 
When are you getting your own children?
I have a daughter, but I prefer to keep her out of the limelight.
 
You have been dating for about three years, when are you getting married?
That is a very tricky question. I am not sure whether my partner is interested in marriage. Both of us must do something to prove that we are ready because marriage is not a bed of roses. When we are ready, we shall know that it is the right time.
 
What qualities do you want in a woman?
I admire and respect intelligent, hardworking, beautiful and understanding girls.
 
You seem to be reserved. How do you approach ladies?
It depends on the way she is dressed. If she is smart, I start by complimenting her. If she responds to me with a smile, I befriend her. Then I can express my feelings.
 
How many children would you like to have?
Only two, so that I get time to play with them, provide them with everything they want; a good education and life.
If you have many kids, you can fail to give them the attention they need.
 
As a parent, how do you discipline your daughter?
If she misbehaves, I sit her down and tell her that I am not happy with what she has done. I am very open with my daughter and this has made us best friends. She is free with me. I do not believe in canning children. It can make them rebellious.
 
Would you cheat on your girlfriend?
It depends. If I am on good terms with her, I would not even think of another woman, but if she does not satisfy me sexually, I may be tempted to cheat because sex counts in a marriage. But I would not want to cheat.
 
How do you keep in shape?
I play football and walk a lot.
 
If you were not a musician, what would you be?
I would be a chef. I love cooking. Before I hit the studio, I was working at a popular restaurant in town as a chef. I cook for my girlfriend.
