Stoopid Boy’s manager, Castro, has opened up about the late Kenyan artiste’s final months, revealing that the loss of his brother deeply affected him and played a significant role in his emotional struggles.
Speaking about the artiste, Castro said he witnessed a side of Stoopid Boy that he believes he will never forget. According to the manager, many people may have overlooked the impact of a major loss the artiste experienced just two months before his reported death.
> “Watu wengi walisahau Stoopid Boy alipoteza brother yake two months ago. Hiyo ilimwaffect,” Castro said.
Castro explained that Stoopid Boy’s brother was more than just a sibling. He described him as the person who consistently encouraged the artiste and acted as a father figure in his life.
According to Castro, the brother also played a key role in convincing Stoopid Boy to seek rehabilitation.
Brother convinced Stoopid Boy to go to rehab
Castro claimed that Stoopid Boy had initially been reluctant to enter rehabilitation but eventually agreed after being encouraged by his brother.
He said the artiste’s brother was an important source of motivation and support, making his death particularly difficult for Stoopid Boy.
Castro also recalled that Oga Obinna had previously urged people around Stoopid Boy to push him towards rehabilitation, suggesting that the artiste appeared hesitant about taking that step.
Online trolling also took a toll
Beyond the personal loss and struggles surrounding rehabilitation, Castro also pointed to the treatment Stoopid Boy received online.
He claimed that Kenyans subjected the artiste to hurtful comments, including trolls about his breath, and suggested that such remarks may have affected him emotionally.
The manager’s comments come amid ongoing discussions about Stoopid Boy’s reported death and the circumstances surrounding his final days.
While Castro’s account offers an insight into what those close to the artiste say he was going through, the claims about his mental and emotional state should be treated as allegations and personal accounts, rather than independently established facts.
His revelations have nevertheless reignited conversations about the pressures faced by young content creators and artistes, the importance of support systems during difficult periods, and the potential impact of online harassment.
