Ugandan singer Alien Skin says he may never return home. In a revealing phone interview with Nsasagge Media, the Fangone Forest boss disclosed he’s considering a permanent move to Kenya—citing death threats, poor medical support, and what he calls a toxic environment for creatives.
The artist, known for his unapologetic street style and bold statements, didn’t mince words: “People wanted me dead. My cries for help were ignored,” he said. Alien Skin fled to Kenya just before Easter, seeking medical care after sustaining head injuries during an attack in Iganga.
Now recovering, the singer revealed his injuries have impacted his memory. “I forget a lot,” he said, “but I’m hopeful I’ll be okay soon.” Despite the pain, he remains clear on one thing—Uganda, in his view, doesn’t value him.
“I feel unappreciated. I might just stay here,” he said. “Even Muhammad and Jesus weren’t accepted at home. Greatness is rarely recognized where it begins.”
In the same breath, he denounced the celebrity culture in Uganda as superficial.
“Stardom in Uganda is bulls**t,” he added. “I’ll be the first superstar to leave everything behind and restart as an upcoming artist in Kenya.”
He didn’t stop there. Alien Skin, whose fan base has swelled across borders, hinted at relocating his entire camp.
“I’ll take the whole Fangone Forest with me. Our flags are heading to Kenya.”
This statement could signal a seismic shift in East Africa’s entertainment scene. Alien Skin’s potential move—and his warning shots about the state of the Ugandan music industry—are already generating debate online.

Many fans sympathize, pointing to his growing regional appeal and the lack of formal support structures for artists in Uganda.
Security remains another sore point. The singer says he requested government protection multiple times following threats to his life but was met with silence.
“I’m more valuable than many of the people they guard daily,” he stated bluntly.
For now, Alien Skin remains in Kenya, recovering and recalibrating. But if his words are anything to go by, Uganda may soon lose one of its most controversial, talked-about talents—not to scandal, but to another flag entirely.
