Published on October 9, 2019, gospel singer Hope Kid has revealed the devastating impact of a sex scandal on his career.

After being accused of infecting a young girl with STI following a threesome with fellow gospel singer DK Kwenye Beat, Hope Kid has found himself isolated by the gospel fraternity.

Speaking in a radio interview, the singer shared his struggles in finding collaborators, stating, "It is very difficult to do a collabo with a gospel artist than secular. Sai nikichukua simu niambie mtu wa secular ati nko na ngoma na nataka udrop verse ataniambia kuja a producer wako studio yangu tufanye itoke lakini sai nikiambia gospel artist msee aaleta story mingi."

Hope Kid's struggles are evident in his recent collaboration with Khaligraph Jones, where he had to feature the secular artist on his song due to the lack of interest from gospel artists.
