With her latest song "Baby Daddy", Akothee has taken a little break from music as she ventures into her farm work.

Her passion for whatever she does is clear in whatever she does in her daily life despite being a single mother of five and this keeps her going and staying focused by working hard because she has children to take care of and whom she loves so much.

The famous hitmaker known for her hit songs such as "Yuko Moyoni" and "Sweet Love", took to social media asking her fans not to ask her any questions concerning music because the last time she was given a cheque by the Music Copyright Society Of Kenya was in October last year which was Kshs. 56,000.

"This is salary for only two of my domestic employees per month, this can't even pay my photographer so leave me alone, listen to the ones on youtube like Baby Daddy link on my bio and the rest. Leave music for now will collect it next month. Awards are coming give me what you think i deserve".

This is what she said meaning  that the employees are likely to be paid about thirty thousand shillings each per month.

Akothee is popularly known more for her flamboyant lifestyle than her music but what most people don't know is that she goes to the farm and even cooks for herself without a servant's help unlike other artistes. This only tells you why she enjoys spending her money on her kids and herself -she works hard.

"Jamani mimi naogopa kuomba omba , kuomba ni kazi kweli , yahitaji moyo , hivi mimi Akoth nikiishiwa leo naeza muomba nani ?ama mimi na hawa watoto wangu wengi ,tutakuwa wageni wa nani ? huwezi kumtegemea binaadamu , wana nyoyo za kuchoka mtegemee Mungu tu na nguvu alizokupa , Ni mwenyezi Mungu tu ndiye waweza muomba siku zote na asikuchoke , asikusengenye wala kukukwaza .Majibu yake ni ya kweli na za kufurahisha , jaribu binaadamu uumie."

Simply put, Akothee advices her fans to avoid depending on human beings but only depend on God because He alone can never get tired of you asking Him for help.
