However, what's even more heartwarming is YY's recent gesture of building a new house for his mother, a testament to his love and appreciation for her.
According to YY, his mother has been a pillar of strength for him and his sister, especially after their father passed away when they were young.
YY has spoken publicly about his father's struggles with alcoholism and abuse, which has motivated him to make a difference in his life and the lives of those around him.
As seen in the photos shared by YY, the new house is a significant upgrade from their previous mabati house, and it's clear that YY has put a lot of thought and effort into making this gift special.
With the caption 'NAKUPENDA MAMA YANGU' (I love my mother), YY has expressed his gratitude and love for his mother, who has been a constant source of support and inspiration in his life.
YY's sister, Bridget, has also followed in his footsteps and created a niche for herself in the industry, with the help of her elder sister.
