Kenya’s Golden Child Larry Madowo Hangs Out With French Montana

Media personality Larry Madowo has been mingling with the elite in the United States, as evidenced by his recent encounter with American-based African hip-hop star French Montana.

“I had the opportunity to meet up with @frenchmontana at his residence in LA. The talented hip-hop artist, originally from Morocco, expressed his pride in having ‘cleared the path for Africa’ and his intention to return to the continent in search of promising talents. Which French Montana hit is your personal favorite?” Larry shared on Instagram.

At the age of 35, Larry Madowo’s career soared to new heights when he decided to explore opportunities beyond local television. After leaving a domestic TV station, he ventured into the international realm, beginning with a stint at the renowned BBC before joining CNN and ultimately relocating to the United States.

An interesting fact about Larry Madowo is that he made the bold decision to drop out of college while pursuing his bachelor’s degree, opting instead for a position at KTN. As his reputation grew and he became a household name, he returned to Daystar University to complete his degree. Larry later obtained a master’s degree from Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.

French Montana stands as one of the most revered African artists in the music industry. Having emigrated from Morocco to the United States with his family during the mid-1990s, he found himself immersed in the South Bronx of New York City. It was there that he gained a practical education in hip-hop, embracing the genre’s essence alongside his mother, father, and two young sons.
