In a surprising turn that has captivated fans and inspired discussions across Kenya, celebrated rapper Jackson Ngechu Makini, known to the world as Prezzo, has dedicated his life to Christ.
The famed musician, known for his confident persona and a legacy of chart-topping hits, made his public commitment to Christianity at Empowerment Christian Church (ECC) Nairobi, under the mentorship of Rev. Lucy Natasha.
Speaking candidly about his decision, Prezzo expressed a heartfelt desire to use his talent to make a positive impact on youth.
“I’ve been on this journey for a long time, and I realized that fame and fortune alone aren’t enough. There’s something more profound that I’m looking for,” he shared.
“I believe God has called me to spread a message of hope and faith to the young people of Kenya, and there’s no better platform to do that than through my music.”
The transformation marks a significant shift for the rapper, who rose to fame as one of Kenya’s most prominent—and sometimes controversial—entertainers.
Now, with his first gospel single, Prezzo aims to redirect his music toward uplifting messages. The song, which was unveiled during a recent service at ECC Nairobi, reflects Prezzo’s newfound purpose, with lyrics focused on resilience, redemption, and spiritual growth.
Rev. Lucy Natasha, who has played a key role in Prezzo’s spiritual journey, praised his decision to embrace his faith publicly.
“Prezzo’s journey is a powerful testament to the transformative power of faith,” Rev. Natasha remarked.
“His willingness to open his heart and serve through his music shows that there is no limit to what God can do in our lives.
His story is going to inspire many young people to think about their own purpose and potential.”
Prezzo’s hope is that his story will resonate with young people who might be struggling to find their own direction.
“I know I’ve been a role model for a lot of young people, and now, I want to show them that you can still be yourself while embracing a higher purpose,” he said.
“My prayer is that this new chapter will inspire the youth to explore their own faith and realize that they too can achieve great things with God’s guidance.”
As Prezzo steps into this new phase of his life and career, fans and industry peers alike are eager to see how his commitment to faith will shape his work and influence Kenya’s youth.
This transformation not only represents his personal spiritual journey but also a powerful message to all who look up to him—reminding them that no matter where they come from or what they’ve been through, redemption is always within reach.
