For many artists, a hit song brings fame. For Viboyo, a verse brought four wheels and a reminder that art still has the power to move strangers in ways that statistics cannot measure.
The “Mr DJ” verse, delivered with the smooth confidence that defined Viboyo’s early career, travelled further than he ever imagined. Somewhere out there, a listener didn’t just replay it. They rewarded it.
“I will tell you one thing,” Viboyo recalls, leaning into the memory with disbelief that still hasn’t faded. “I got my first car from the ‘Mr. DJ’ verse. And this was not even a show or anything. Someone just heard my verse and said, ‘Viboyo, you deserve something,’ and they gave me Shs15 million to buy a car. I didn’t even know them. I had never met them.”
For Viboyo, that car was more than transport. It was validation. It was proof that someone, somewhere, was listening deeply enough to invest not just emotionally, but financially.
“You can imagine how magical that is,” he says, still sounding like a man who occasionally checks to confirm it actually happened.
