Benga artist Tom Mboya Ang’ang’a popularly known as Atommy Sifa is dominating banter on social media platforms for reasons other than his well-choreographed 10 minutes long songs. The man is refreshing and can easily pass for a Congolese musician. Notice in his videos he gyrates like one and has good company of dancers who suggestively move to his hits ala Koffi Olomide. Then he bleached just like his Congolese counterparts. That was many years back but his legion of fans and haters are on him for skin lighting procedure.
Bleaching
The Homa Bay based superstar bleached his skin in 2008, a transformation that pretty much worked for him. Eleven years later, social media users are attacking him like he underwent the procedure yesterday. Atommy Sifa bragging on Facebook Group True Luos has got him in hot soup. The vitriol that has followed will humble even those with a stone heart. In response to the flurry of abuses, Atommy Sifa responded:
Mind your business omera pod aloi mabor sana tobe bed ka ing’etoni onge gima inyalo loko kuoma katadichiel
Badala uangalie maisha yako na familia yako iskie vizuri, wewe umekazana kutusi ATOMMY SIFA Shem on you…..
Hahaaa mimi niko na pesa naskia poa n naenjoy life into in golundi nono ni iwacho kisungu Shem on you once more……
I HAVE MONEY N I CAN DO ANYTHING I WANT ON MY BODY
Achana kushinda ukifuatilia maisha yangu bana mind your business hatakama ni kubleach sijazuia mtu kubleach na pia siishi kwako fala wewe……
Many Moki bwana kotami to bed mos kech ochami
(Loosely translated: Take care of family and yourself instead of using your energy to abuse Atommy Sifa-shame on you….
I have money and I enjoy myself, once again shame on you…I have money and can do anything I wish on my body. Mind your business, and if I have bleached, I haven’t stopped you from doing the same)
The artist disputed claims that his mother was against his decision to bleach saying she died when he was 2 years old while is dad passed on when he was only 11 years.
Scandals
In 2017, the artist went against the political grain and composed a song in praise of Uhuru Kenyatta. The song, Uhuru Nyale, (Uhuru is capable) was extremely bold in a region that supported opposition chief Raila Odinga. Attommy claimed that goons attacked his shop and promised to teach him a lesson for casting the former Prime minister. He said at the time:
“I also want to take this opportunity to publicly apologise to Raila and the entire Luo community. I want them to know and understand that I had no bad intentions and was only out to make a living…..”
The artist claimed he was paid only kes40,000 out of the kes500,000 he was promised for the song by the Jubilee regime.
