Singer Chozen Blood, also known as Patrick Musasizi, recently addressed a concerning issue that has been affecting artists in the industry. In light of the recent incidents involving Winnie Nwagi, Chozen has taken a stand and appealed to fans for more respect towards artists and their personal boundaries.
Over the weekend, Nwagi encountered not one, but two distressing situations at separate local venues where she was performing. In one incident, an individual attempted to forcefully push money down her bra, while in another incident in Masindi, a fan touched her legs during her performance. Understandably upset, Nwagi had no choice but to abruptly end her set and leave the stage.
These incidents have sparked intense conversations among netizens, who are left questioning why such unfortunate occurrences seem to happen repeatedly to Winnie Nwagi.
Chozen Blood, who himself has experienced unwanted sexual advances from a female fan while performing, expressed his displeasure with how fans treat not only Swangz Avenue artists but all artists in general. In a heartfelt plea, he urged fans to refrain from sexually harassing artists.
“Dear fans, artists are not sex objects. Please respect our workspace,” Chozen asserted, showing his empathy towards Nwagi’s experiences. “I sympathize with Nwagi and firmly reject any form of sexual harassment within our community,” he added, emphasizing the importance of creating a safe and respectful environment for all artists.
It is crucial for fans to remember that artists are individuals who deserve to be treated with dignity and professionalism. By respecting their personal space and boundaries, we can contribute to a healthier and more supportive atmosphere within the music industry. Let us stand together with Chozen Blood and other artists, working towards a community that values respect and eradicates any form of sexual harassment.
Artists are not sex objects. Dear fans respect our work space 🙏 #saynotosexualharrasment @FirebbyUg @SpiceDianaUg @ntvuganda @nbstv @GalaxyFMUg @Ugandapolice1 pic.twitter.com/EDVNA8dRCg
