K-rupt (15 November 1979 – 29 November 2003), born Carlton Williams Bongo Juma in Nairobi, was a Kenyan rapper who had national success in the two years leading up to his murder in 2003.[1] He collaborated with artists such as Fizzle Dogg, Bigpin, and E-Sir, who died earlier the same year.
His hit singles in Kenya included "Changamshwa", "Tukawake" and "Chacha". His single "Dada Njoo" was on the charts at the time of his death.[1] One day after a concert with fellow hip hop musician Nameless, an argument during a carjacking of K-rupt's matatu led to K-rupt being killed with a single gunshot. Later his body was found dumped in the Laikipia Forest.[2]
