Whereas many Ugandans remember Jose Chameleone’s song, ‘Dorotia’, few remember the lady who inspired the song.
She was Grient Onsea, a Belgian lady who was Chameleone’s girlfriend at the time. Apart from having been very instrumental at the beginning of his career, where she paid production fees for his first album that ushered him onto the entertainment industry, she also bore him his first child, Ayla Shyne.
Now 12, Shyne is all grown and Chameleone just can’t hide his excitement!
He recently shared her photo on social media that he captioned, ‘A great man without Great Sons and Daughters Didn’t fully share his greatness!!! Meet my First Daughter’.
When Grient Onsea broke up with Chameleone in the mid-2000s, she left with Ayla and their daughter has since remained in her custody. Chameleone once tried to secure her custody in 2007 when Dorotia was arrested and sentenced to 14 years in prison after being found in possession of drugs but his efforts didn’t bear fruit.
