How Kao Denero And Famous Ended Their Court Battle

At a hearing held on August 28, 2025, Sierra Leonean hip-hop star and Entertainment Ambassador, Amara Dennis Turay, popularly known as Kao Denero, publicly apologized for his role in an altercation involving fellow musician Frederick Dapaye Peters, also called Famous. The matter stems from a confrontation on February 22 at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Freetown, where an incident involving associates of Kao Denero allegedly led to the disappearance of $7,000.

According to Famous’s lawyer, Madieu Sesay, his client received $5,000 as part of a settlement, a payment reportedly facilitated by prominent politician and philanthropist Hon. Sidie Tunis. Despite this, the case proceeded to court after Famous insisted that his concerns extended beyond money, pointing to issues of respect and accountability in the entertainment industry.
