Over the past few months, Alex Apoko aka Ringtone has professedly become the voice of the ‘people’.
As the self-proclaimed ‘President of Gospel,‘ he is no longer scared of stirring things a little and getting in trouble with fellow artistes as well as the law.
He has been involved in a number of altercations that have left him nursing injuries time and again. The most recent incident happened over the weekend after he faced off with DJ Mo.
A video doing rounds on social media shows a furious DJ Mo chasing Ringtone from Panari Hotel where his wife, Size 8 Reborn, was launching her album.
Ringtone had made some comments which did not augur well with DJ Mo, who in a span of seconds was ready to get down and dirty.
Drama started when Ringtone walked to the podium during a dedication session by 'men of the cloth'. Size 8 said she did not recognise Ringtone as one of them.
“I went to the stage and Size 8 chased me away. We also have an anointing to dedicate her album. I want to tell Size 8; I have an anointing that has sustained me this long,” an irate Ringtone told reporters.
This was after DJ Mo harshly kicked him out of the gathering for allegedly disrespecting his wife.
Size 8 Reborn successfully launched her debut album titled Gospel Anthem, where she has featured the likes of Gospel singer David Wonder, Peter Blessings, Pitson and Pombe hitmaker Lyanii among others.
This album also introduced DJ Mo as a rapper in their first song that dropped on Monday titled Songa.
