Kampala, Uganda – Alien Skin has officially filed a police complaint against fellow artist Pallaso following a dramatic raid on his residence at Fangone Forest early Thursday morning. This development comes after a series of violent confrontations between the two artists, which have raised serious concerns about safety in the Ugandan music industry.
According to Luke Owoyesigire, spokesperson for the Kampala Metropolitan Police, Alien Skin reported the incident despite initially denying any involvement with law enforcement. “I confirm that the matter has been reported by him and is currently under investigation,” Owoyesigire stated.
The altercation reportedly escalated after Pallaso allegedly led a group of individuals to storm Alien Skin’s home, believed to be a retaliation for an earlier attack on Pallaso by Alien Skin’s crew during the Empere Festival. Eyewitness accounts suggest that tensions have been brewing between the two artists, culminating in this latest incident.
As investigations continue, the music community is calling for peace and resolution to avoid further violence, highlighting the need for improved security measures at events and within the industry.
