An Unexpected Revelation on Mic Cheque

The conversation began after co-host Mariah recalled a recent Instagram Story in which King Kaka was seen eating boiled eggs. Mariah joked that the rapper was swallowing the eggs "like a snake," prompting the discussion about his unusual pet.

Responding to the remark, King Kaka confirmed that he keeps a snake at home and disclosed that it is named Alfie. According to the musician, the reptile lives inside a glass enclosure specially prepared for it.

Feeding Habits and the Westlands Mouse Run

King Kaka explained that Alfie is still young and currently feeds on small animals, particularly rodents. He noted that the snake's diet is appropriate for its current size and stage of growth.

“Panya si zinauzwa hapa westy, kwanza hizi za white, si napita tu pale nachukua panya.”

When Chaxxy asked King Kaka how he determines when Alfie is hungry, the rapper responded that he usually assumes it is time for the snake to feed rather than relying on any specific signal from the reptile.

King Kaka further described reptiles as some of the easiest animals to care for. He explained that, in his experience, they require relatively little maintenance compared to many other pets. He also stated that reptiles are among the cheapest animals to manage, citing their feeding and general upkeep.

“Uzuri wa reptiles ni cheapest animals unaeza eka. Unapata kama crocodile, zinakula kama mbuzi moja zikiangukia, but how many times.”

King Kaka's appearance on the Mic Cheque Podcast covered a range of topics, but his description of living with Alfie became one of the standout moments from the episode. His account offered listeners a glimpse into an unusual aspect of his personal life, including how he houses, feeds, and spends time with the young snake.
