Charlene wore a buibui, hijab and shades to disguise herself as one of the passengers in the matatu and disclosed that she learned a lot about Kenyans during the matatu rides.
"Most people were going to work while others were going for different hustles. I am so excited. At first, I was seated with Daddy Owen but now I am going to sit at the back,” she said in one of the videos.

However, in an interview with Milele FM, the singer clarified that they are good friends and are working on several projects together.
“Ah, what’s all this about? Bro, you know there are some things that shouldn’t be talked about. Some are serious, man… Let’s not go there. You’re my brother; I wouldn’t want to put you in a tough spot,” Daddy Owen answered.
“No, it’s just work. Apart from being friends, we have many projects we’re working on together… It’s not necessary that every time you see me with someone, they have to be more than a friend,” he explained.
