Concerns are growing for the well-being of Zimbabwean hip-hop artist Holy Ten following a series of erratic and controversial social media posts.
The public behavior has prompted fellow musician Platinum Prince to call for the artist to receive help, suggesting he is facing significant personal challenges.
In other posts, he suggested his marriage was over and shared images of multiple other women while making contentious claims. He also involved his ex-wife, Chelsea, in the series of posts.
The behavior comes as Holy Ten announced the upcoming release of his new album, "Bhundu Boyz 2," a collaboration with Michael Maggz. The series of posts has sparked a wider conversation among fans and fellow artists about the pressures of fame and the importance of mental health support.
Fellow Artist Calls for Support
Platinum Prince, who recently performed with Holy Ten in Gweru, took to Facebook to express his worries. "As a nation I feel, instead of judging the guy, he needs help," he wrote. "I was moved noticing that from the last time I saw him, he has lost weight. He has even lost control over his life... his mental health matters. The guy is going through a lot, he is depressed."Social Media Posts Trigger Alarm
The public outburst from Holy Ten appears to have been triggered by photos showing his wife, Kimberly Richards, posing with other men at a private event. In response, Holy Ten posted a number of inflammatory statements on his Instagram account, making derogatory claims about his wife and threatening a man pictured with her.![]() |
