WHO IS JAGUAR?
Jaguar is a Kenyan music artist, singer, songwriter,
politician and an entrepreneur who has topped the music charts within East
Africa and Africa as a whole.
He is known to be one of the richest music
artists in Africa especially East Africa. Jaguar was born in the slums of
Nairobi and he lost his mother while still he was young and as a result of this
loss, he was forced to do many odd jobs so that he could survive.
Among these
jobs were working at construction sites, working as a taxi tout among others.
Eventually
with the help of friends and the little resources that he had gathered from the
odd jobs, he was able to complete his education and decided to venture into the
music business.
Jaguar started his music
career after he was signed to the once popular music duo called the Ogopa DJs
in Kenya who were one of Kenya’s top music exports to east Africa and Africa as
a whole.
He recorded a few songs with them until one day his hit song called
Kigeugeu was released that took the ears of people around East Africa by storm.
Due to this song he gained popularity and was able to perform in many shows
around East Africa and Africa as a whole.
He was able to win many music awards
among which were Kisima Awards from Kenya, Afrima Awards held in Nigeria and
many other awards. As a result of his musical success, Jaguar was able to
venture into business where he started a real estate business in outskirts of
Nairobi and other towns in Kenya.
He also ventured into transportation business
among other business interests. Recently Jaguar decided to try his hand at
politics where he contested as a Member of Parliament in his constituency and
was voted into the house of representatives of Kenya.
His rags to riches story will continue to
inspire many Kenyans and most importantly African youths that it is possible to
become successful irrespective of the many trials and failures that we face in
life.
