Gweth Lisawanza is a rapidly emerging young Kenyan creative and the daughter of celebrated rapper and entrepreneur King Kaka (Kennedy Ombima) and Nana Owiti. In early March 2026, at just 11 years old, Gweth made national headlines when she was officially appointed as the Creative Director for her father's highly anticipated album, "The Year of the Pen." Breaking the mold of the typical celebrity child, Gweth is a hands-on artist and designer. In a viral Facebook reel that introduced her to the public in her new executive capacity, she confidently described herself as a "student during the weekdays and a business lady." She was directly responsible for conceptualizing, sketching, and approving the album's artwork and broader visual identity, actively bridging the gap between family legacy and professional, autonomous creative direction.
