Zimdancehall artist Silent Killer has clarified the reasons behind his refusal to board a UK-bound flight due to a dream about a potential plane explosion. He dismissed claims made by the promoter, emphasizing that the issue was related to payment, not superstitions.
In an interview with DJ Sparks, Silent Killer explained that he was prepared to travel but insisted on being paid before performing. The artist, whose real name is Jimmy Mudereri, disputed the promoter’s account, stating that professionalism and respect were his main concerns.

While reactions on social media varied, with some fans supporting Silent Killer and criticizing exploitation in the music industry, others speculated about the artist’s behavior. Amid the controversy, Silent Killer emphasized his commitment to prioritizing payment and professionalism in his career.
