From the time he was recognised for releasing the first locally produced Hip-Hop album in his birth country Zambia, Officer in Charge was and still stands as one of the most successful Hip-Hop albums from that country. He introduced new acts and garnered local awards for best Hip-Hop artist. He was further introduced to Africa and the rest of the world through MTV Base and Channel-O, the two major African music channels that broadcast across Africa. His song The Fire Inside once took a No. 1 spot across Africa on both MTV Base and Channel-O charts, which earned him a Channel-O Video Music Award for Best Music Video, Southern Africa.

Before recently re-branding to the name CHISENGA, the rapper was known as C.R.I.$.I.$ and then later became Crisis Mr. Swagger. He came up with the aliases at the age of 10. Meanwhile, he asserted himself as a world-class creative, trailblazer.

He released his Mixtape C.R.I.$.I.$ Presents The Diamond Chain and then later got picked up by Clavel Management while living in the UK, where he released the Grammy-recognised album, Designer in 2008.

CHISENGA continues to rise into stardom and not only is he an artist. He is a socially responsible individual when he is not wearing his alter ego as the rapper & has a dream to build his Diamond Chain Media platform as he morphs into an all-encompassing lifestyle brand.

The rapper has been rising to greater heights in recent years. He was quoted saying “It’s always a matter of time and persistence. Any artist that plans to have a lasting career also has to learn to evolve with the time’s and, thank God I’m a sponge and I will continue to adapt so… don’t expect the same thing from CHISENGA.”
