King on bongo music is in the country for a media tour and to record some music projects.

Speaking to Mpasho exclusively, he revealed that his son, Kiba Junior surprised him when he jumped into a choreography session for his new hit Ndombolo and killed it with his dance moves. 

The video went viral.

Asked why his son did not make it to the official music for Ndombolo, Alikiba said:

"I did not want him to be in the video. But he surprised us and jumped into the video as it was being shot. At the time the choreographers were practising and it worked out well. He was in step. And he did very well."

Adding:

"The next day I shot the Ndombolo Dance Challenge with him and it worked out sooo well and fans loved it."

Ali Kiba continued:

"I did not want to put him in the music video because that is official. Also, I did not want him to be displayed as an entertainer before he decides for himself what his talent is. But I know he has a talent for entertaining and sports especially football."

The Salute star explained that he is shielding his son from unnecessary scritiny before he can made his own decision.

"Let him go to school first before indulging in music or art. I want him to choose for himself and he loves music."
