Kenyan rapper Sosuun has shed light on the reasons behind her separation from her former husband, Kenrazy. The artist, known for her powerful music and public persona, recently took to social media to address the personal struggles that led to the end of her marriage. Her statements offer a rare glimpse into the complexities of her relationship and the deeply held beliefs that influenced her decision to leave.
Sosuun’s marriage to Kenrazy, which lasted for a decade, came to an end in 2020. Despite the time they spent together and their shared experiences, Sosuun’s recent disclosures reveal that the separation was influenced by significant differences in their worldviews, particularly regarding faith and spiritual beliefs. Sosuun openly admitted that the primary reason for her departure was her discomfort with her former in-laws’ strong belief in witchcraft.
“For those asking why I left, it was because of a family that puts so much faith in witchcraft… I was raised as a Christian and cannot be around a family that believes in waganga and what we call ‘Nguvu za Giza.’ That’s not the path for me,” Sosuun explained. Her statements reflect a profound clash between her Christian values and the practices observed by her former in-laws. Sosuun’s reluctance to be associated with what she perceives as spiritual practices contrary to her own beliefs was evidently a major factor in her decision to end the marriage.
In her social media post, Sosuun emphasized her desire for privacy and respect regarding her decision. “So I would appreciate it if no one asked about this anymore. I’ve fought battles I shouldn’t have had to face, but in Jesus’ mighty name, I win these battles because nothing is greater in the eyes of our mighty God. I will continue to thrive in my career and life’s journey,” she said. This statement underscores her commitment to moving forward and focusing on her career and personal growth, despite the challenges she has faced.
Sosuun also expressed regret over her marriage, describing it as one of the biggest mistakes of her life. She shared her feelings of being rejected by her ex-husband’s family, despite her genuine efforts to integrate into their lives and her love for them. “If anything mysteriously happens to me, you all know where to find the answers. If only roads could warn travelers, I would have chosen a different direction,” Sosuun wrote. This poignant reflection reveals the depth of her dissatisfaction and the emotional toll of her experiences.
The couple, who share two daughters, had their separation and subsequent issues play out publicly, adding to the complexity of their personal lives. Sosuun’s revelation not only provides clarity on the reasons behind her divorce but also highlights the broader issue of how deeply held cultural and spiritual beliefs can impact personal relationships.
As Sosuun moves forward, her focus appears to be on her career and personal well-being. Her decision to speak out about her experiences serves as a reminder of the often unseen struggles that individuals face in their private lives, and the importance of aligning personal values with the relationships we choose to nurture.
While the details of her separation are deeply personal, Sosuun’s openness invites a broader conversation about the intersection of faith, cultural practices, and personal relationships. As she continues to thrive in her career and life journey, Sosuun’s story remains a testament to her resilience and commitment to living authentically according to her beliefs.
