 If you really believe that I swing the other side, leave your girl with me. Just for 10 minutes. Maybe even less. Alright. You live within your means. Unajpati apresha ni ni. Kawezi, gari, kubwa, why, why go run around trying to get a V8 and you can't afford it. Just for lights maybe. Lights, ita gulisha. Welcome back. This is SP Mbaaz. My good name is Silver Kido and welcome to the story behind the tattoo with Silver Kido na lehini kona amazing. Fit interpreneur, father Abraham. As you always call him, palewo ni metendakizu mi. Frankie the jimet, how are you? Good, good man, you alright? Good to see you. Nice seeing you. This year? Complete for me that sentence. This year we're making money. Money moves? Money moves. What do you mean all moves are money moves? All moves have to be. Ki ingi api apale kili mani ni muni mani moves? Kila maale ni mani moves. Ha ha ha ha ha. Kwa ni utahakwa na mili ni gabi kwa count? Yote. What's your target? All, everything. What's your what? There's no target. I don't know my worth. Ok Google, ebu Google apa wana ni my worth? This is the time at Google that I saw 80 million USD. I was like thank you. Thank you very much. 80 million? Currently. Even me I'm looking for it. Shala you'll get there. Just to ask you. This life so far things are lining? Yeah, life is moving. Life is shifting well. Can't complain. Which plans do you have for us this year? So again, I think just jimit is my number one passion. Of course we've just opened up the new space. We're located in Rungay. So people should come check us out. And then of course I've entered into the event space. So we're doing some experiential events. Events with an impact. It's called nowhere, nowhere experiences. That's also something that I'm passionate about. We have our first event should be happening March 16th. I'm sure I even told you offline that you're invited for one of those ones. We're trying to get, within different events, we're trying to get celebrities to come through with the cause, whatever cause that they have. For my cause it was just empowering the youth through fitness, through sports. If you see on my social media I've posted something to do with boxing. So I was hosted by the intermediate 2024 boxing championships. That was last weekend and it was such a great time there. Spent a lot of time with the boys there, the youth, and they were telling me about their struggles and what they go through. It's something that it's saddening and it shouldn't be that way. So whatever little that we can give, I think that can go a long way, especially for them. So that's something that I'm currently passionate about. So obviously Shere Lazma Ipigwe, but what are you doing it for? What's the end goal? What comes out of it? So this is something that we're definitely working on and stay tuned for more of that. Alright guys, we'll keep you posted on what is happening about Shere Lazma. But for now you can go to Frankie the Jamies, make sure you follow Tiktok for more updates because something is coming, something great is coming for the society, for you actually. What are you waiting for? Thank you. Welcome to the story behind the tattoo whereby we get a one-on-one session interview to discuss with celebrities, media personalities, very influential people like you about the inspiration behind the tattoos. I know one of them is Matatsuki Dogo. Is it tattoo na watua jim, zina patana wa api? So I guess tattoos, I mean everything I do is based on art, right? Fashion to me is art. This in itself is just drawing its art. Me doing my nails as art, me showcasing my jewelry, my dress sense, everything that I do, I touch it to art. And tattoos is just a part of that. So something that I started when I was, I think the first tattoo I got I was 16 or 17. 16. Yeah, I was quite young when I got my first tattoo. I was even younger when I got my first piercing. But yeah, to me that's just how I express myself. This is how I express myself. Tell us about your first tattoo. First tattoo was the dumbest looking thing ever. It was an angel. And it was right here. It was an angel which you can see I've done the cover up. I've done the cover up of my son. That was the first tattoo that I ever did. And then after that I went straight into a sleeve. So I did the bottom half, all that. And then after that is when I did the inside part and then the top part. And it's still not done. There's still other things which I'm looking to reconnect. But they all have a meaning. Aside from the first tattoo that I had. An angel? Yeah, it's just an angel. Just literally an angel. What was went through your mind? I think I was just so excited to get a tattoo that I just got the simplest thing I could find. Where did you get the money first? I mean I had pocket money. So I was able to do it. You have a pocket money? Yeah, yeah, yeah. How much was this then? I can't remember. I can't really remember. It was a long time. 16 Nikitambu. I'm 34 now man. 16 Nikitambu. I can't remember it really to be honest. But I don't think it was because it was in the UK. I don't think it was more than 50 pounds. What was it? Sabu? I don't think it was more than 50 pounds. Maybe like 7 here, 6, 7k. Around that. That was your first? The second tattoo was a sleeve now. But then what made you fall in love with tattoos? Again, it's just like I said, it's a way to express myself. And also I can be able to showcase the things that mean something to me. So I find the thing that means something to me like my grandma. This is about my grandma. So how can I express that in terms of imagery, right? I have my son here. I have just jimit the first logo that we ever had. Timeless is for my grandma. And the crazy thing is, the reason why this is insane is because my grandma raised me, right? She passed away. Her name was Coco. She passed away. Literally 9 months after she passed, my daughter was born. My daughter's called Coco. So this proves that she's timeless. I can't believe it. She just reincarnated into my life. And I got this way before. I got this when I was like 19 or 20. I didn't even know I was going to ever have a daughter or anything of the sort. So it's just like, you know, sometimes you manifest things into reality. So that's what I do. Alphabeta, Alphabeta is somewhere here. Alphabeta, that was the YouTube channel. My first baby mama, Maureen. You had to mention that. I mean, literally the things that mean something to me, I put it on my body. So I still have a long way to go. There's other things which I have to add on to it. I have Batman up here because I'm a huge Batman fan. When did you fall in love with Batman movies? I don't know. Afrika's Batman? No, Afrika's Batman. The world's Batman. Have you ever seen me and Batman together? No. Exactly. All right. Let me talk you back a bit about the late grandma Kokos. What is it, something you always remember, you always value, you treasure? Something your late grandma shared with you? Memories that you always have it in mind forever of your life? My grandma was super wise. She gave me so much advice on everything. Gave me so much advice on even saving up. Gave me so much advice on women dating. Gave me so much advice on being a man. She was just so instrumental in my life. To who I am right now. I think those are the things which I'll always remember. Advice that she gave me. Best advice? Best advice. I don't think anyone else has ever told me anything that has been so influential to my upbringing than her. She was there literally when I was born. Up until when I was 30. I mean she's been super instrumental. And then just for her to come back as my daughter. I really truly believe she's come back as my daughter. Because I look at my daughter and she has even the walk. Sometimes my daughter walks and I'm like, hey, that's Koko. She has the same walk and everything. So, yeah, it's amazing. What is it? Koko. She has the same walk and everything. So, yeah, it's amazing. Forever in our hearts Koko. You mentioned about your first tattoo. Your first YouTube channel you had with your first baby mama. Why did you have to go for that tattoo? I think again, it's the things that have made a shift in my life. That's one of them. That was a pivotal point in my life. Because I had just jimit. And then I opened a different side of me where it was like family content and stuff like that. Again, that was a major shift of my career, my lifestyle. Because we were now starting to do business and make money with that whole family content creation type of side of things. So, it was instrumental in my growth. And again, anything that's instrumental to my growth, I place it on me. So, yeah, that's the only reason why I put there. Your first point. So, there's an image, this image, it just sticks in my mind every single time when I see him. It's a photo that we took. Actually, Kevbo is the one who took that photo. It just sticks to my head all the time. So, I figured that would be the best thing to put on my sleeve. I'm still looking for that thing that pops when I look at my other kids as well. Then I can say, okay, this reminds me of this person. This reminds me of this person. Okay, I'm going to put that on this side and this side. So, I'm still building that imagery of what I want for my other children as well. Taking about the money you spend on your first point tattoo, how much was it? Oh, funny enough, that was free. So, the top half, not the whole top half, but most of it was free. A good friend of mine, he's called the Mad Kid. I don't know if you've seen him, he's amazing with tattoos. There was a time I did a safari kum advert. The billboard was up and he took a photo of that billboard and he posted. And this is how it became friends, he posted. This was, I think, 20, probably 2017. He posted online and he's like, yo, who is this guy with this wak tattoo? Because he was the tattoo of the angel, right? He's like, with this wak tattoo, link him with me, I'll do a tattoo for him for free. Then people were just tagging me, tagging me, tagging me, tagging me. You know, at that time he didn't really know who I was. People were just tagging me, tagging me. Then I reached out to him, I was just laughing. I was like, hey bro, this thing, it's wak, I know it's wak as well. We just joked about it. He's like, yo, come through, we chill, we talk. I was like, cool, no problem. I went to the studio, I saw his work. He's like, yo, we can do something even now real quick. I was like, cool. And with that we ended up doing the sleeve. We filled up the top half of it. We came up with different concepts and he helped me out work on it. So that one was free. Is that moment you felt embarrassed with your angel tattoo? At times I felt embarrassed with my angel tattoo. I didn't feel embarrassed, I wanted to cover it up. But I felt like it doesn't have, because at that time I had the sleeve down here. All of this had meaning. And then this one was just there like back. Was all this about. So it was just random. So I wasn't really embarrassed about it. It was just a point of, not like I need change, again it's just you need change to what. Yeah, yeah. I even tried to cover it before, but the guy was telling me the lines were too close together. Covering will be issues, blah, blah. But I think they were just too afraid to try it out. How many tattoos do you have so far in total? Just my whole arm. This whole arm. It can't really count them because it's a sleeve. They're all just connected. I can't really count it, but I always just say I have a full arm sleeve. You have like a favorite one from your arm? Like a favorite one? I don't think so. I think all of them just, they all just excite me in their own different way. I don't think I have a specific favorite one. When is the next tattoo? What do you have in mind you're planning to have? So I want to finish off, because I have the space at the back. I want to finish off that. I want to finish off this top part. And then I'm looking to do my leg, but I want to do half. So from knee all the way down to ankle. I want to do that. All on this side. All my tattoos on this side. Even if you notice, most of my piercings on this side. Why on the left side? I don't know. So it's just been a thing of mind where I do everything on my left. Can you only lefty? No, I'm not actually. But I just find it. I think this is like the evil side. Where I can just work on it. How do people see you? You as a father raising your kids, not being the right. You're not raising them in the right way, because they'll see your piercings, they'll see the tattoos, and there's this young generation coming up. Have you encountered people trying to advise you, please don't do this, don't do this? But if you think about it logically, what's a tattoo going to do to a child? If a child wants to be naughty, it's going to be naughty. If a child's going to grow up to be a thief, it's going to be a thief. Me having a tattoo or having piercings or whatnot, it's not really going to change who that person becomes, because it's the upbringing that matters. It's how you raise your children, that's what matters. I'm here to influence my children the right way. I believe I'm doing so as well. We're in 2024, it's very hard to find someone who's not tattooed or pierced. So I don't think that should be a deciding factor of how your children will grow up to be. For me it's just art, like I said. My friends will ask me, why don't you ask Frankie, this one question that given the chance you have your baby mama's name, your family face, your whole body, what is stopping you? Do you have tattoos? No, I don't have. Religion reasons, that's why I don't have. How can you be doing a show about tattoos that don't have tattoos? It's something that I love doing. No, but you see, your love that you don't get now, to one everything. Are they willing? I don't know. We've never had that conversation. Why don't you surprise them? Why? Maybe try to do some unapology, for the mistakes you've done before and before and before. Apologize. There's something I've seen online, people saying that even after 40 years, 30 years, they will just work up and say, there's one day you did this to me, I'm still wondering why did you have to do that to me. Can that be a way of maybe you expressing love, maybe showing some concern about them? I can buy flowers and chocolates. You're not willing? I don't have to do a whole tattoo to prove that I'm sorry for something. Just to show love for them? I don't think I'll be able to. There has to be a genuine specific reason. But they're family. They're mothers of you. I don't have my mom here. I don't have my mom. I don't have my dad. I don't have my brother. I've had my grandma. I've had my grandma and that doubles as my daughter. I have my first born son. Again, that's a monumental change shift in my life as a first born. Yeah, I don't even have my second, third on me. No pressure? No, no yet. It's not something that I have to get this and that. It'll come when it comes. When the time comes, it comes. Because when your kids hang out with you, they'll see this last country, then Bona Una Yangu? No, I always tell them. I'm like, yeah, that's your brother. What about me? I'm like, sure. It'll come. Don't worry. Sure. My kids are understanding. They don't force me to do anything that I don't have sina o nini wajoto vichangumu. Like they don't force issues with anything. Because I talk to them. I explain to them things. That's the number one thing which I've learnt. Kids, if you talk to them the way you talk to just a grown up, they'll listen. But if you just tell them, no, don't do that. Then they're like, okay. They become inquisitive. They become gichangumu. But if you just have conversations with them. At that moment you find yourself trying to convince your son or your daughter just to not to do this, not this time. Like what? Trying to advise them like no, no, no, no. On anything? What is the best question you've been asked by your son or your daughter? You find a surprise. How did you ask me? What's up? Oh no, I've been asked why do we fall in love with women? My son asked me that. My first born son asked me that. It's like why do we fall in love with women? I explained it to him. What is the answer? I even posted on my social media. I told him when you find someone that you truly love and you are vibing on the same frequency. Then you spend enough time with them. You realize that you're compatible and you end up falling in love. And he's like, oh the way you loved mommy I'm like, well yeah, I guess. Yeah, I like the way I loved mommy. And they're like, okay, cool. But if you don't text, wukiaza kumambiaza kunulizama soleo jinga, then what are you really like? Yeah, what's the whole point of that? Now he understands I've broken it down to him in a manner that he can actually understand it. Are they following your footsteps when you're walking out? I mean, I've taken them to my gym before, worked out before but it's not something that I'm pressing them to do but they play sports. Yeah, slowly by slowly they'll figure out what they want to do but I'll also implement it into their lifestyle. But you know the thing is they see me do things and they think it's cool so they want to do it. I think like being a grown up like always find ways of doing things which looks cool to your kids they'll want to do it but if you try force them to do things then it's kind of hard for you to get them to do those things. As you wind up, I've noticed something you know you told me earlier it's a way of expressing yourself. Let's talk about your nails. Where do you have this? I usually just like it depends on what type of outfit I'm going to wear at a special occasion but I think self care is all about just like really taking care of yourself holistically so I usually do my mani pedis skin care routine all that. Recently even if you look at my socials you see I'm working with Ghanye those are things that monumental to me self care goes a long way so this is part of it like literally just I remember there was a time I used to just a normal clear do the normal clear polish and then I was just searching online and I saw Asap Rocky he has his nails all done up I've seen Snoop Dogg has nails all done up Snoop Dogg had French tips this is interesting that looks quite cool we know these guys to be gangsters and all that but if someone can be that comfortable in their sexuality to have nails which look attractive because this is the number one tension grabber when I'm literally communicating with someone I'm talking to someone literally it's like whoa oh my god I love your nails like literally that's the conversation started nine times out of ten anytime I meet someone so having that in itself you know my line of work it needs me to be in different spaces and to stand out pretty much so this is how I stand out and that's what I'm saying it needs me to be higher from top to bottom it's art to me I'm literally a walking piece of art like I designed even working out in itself what is working now you're sculpting your body you're trying to create the perfect design of your physique so everything is just art to me can we find a self in a position whereby you have to explain to people again and again what color? no it's not my favorite color it's just one of the colors that I've shifted I change it all the time different things different but I don't explain anything to anyone because some people will question your sexuality that's okay and you know what I tell them leave your girlfriend with me and you'll have yourself questioning your manhood higher if you really believe that I swing the other side leave your girlfriend just for 10 minutes maybe even less alright what's nice hanging out with you bro I want to say this I'm a big fan I've seen which is a bit low-key but I'm going to mow at the right time I've seen you we've met several times you always spare time to talk to us when you feel like it's the right time to talk to us I just want to say keep on what you're doing we're here to make sure that if things are not going the right way we have to remind you we're behind you, we're watching and I want to wish you all the best to your family and friends and whatever nothing much to ask but just to you to tell your fans something amazing, something inspiring because they are the manzana I don't know how to say I don't know how to say body goals, financial goals I don't know we're surviving we're surviving there's a time you don't know what you're doing I'm living I'm living surviving I'm living everyone should be living just live within your budget what's your budget here classified you're living for your computer you're living for your money you live within your means you live within your means you live under pressure kawazi, gari, kubuwa why, why go run around trying to get a v18 you can't afford it like saita kuleisha you miss kia like saita kuleisha Superstarmanyam ambia likes eta kuleisha Thank you so much.
