In 2020, Kumar dropped an album called Kulture Walk two years after he left Raging Fyah and revealed that the group had broken up because of differences in ideas and opinions. “There’s still not a lot of explanation being done on both sides. My side or the band’s side in terms of what really happen because you know it wasn’t the easiest decision for me to make,” he said at that time.

We send our most sincere condolences to the Reggae artist.
