Renowned Tanzanian singer Rahamila Chamamila alias Ray C has been living in France for several years now. In a recent video on her YouTube channel Ray C’s corner, she revealed for the first time the motivations behind her decision to leave her homeland for the Western country.
Ray C shared that despite overcoming her struggles with drug addiction and completing rehabilitation, she still felt undervalued.
“Despite overcoming my challenges, I felt that I was not being fully respected or acknowledged,” she confided.
“In 2017-2018, I returned to the studio and released some songs, but I still felt a lack of inner peace. Although I had physically recovered, my heart was still in need of healing.”

Seeking solace, Ray C made the courageous choice to relocate from Tanzania to France.
“I felt that my efforts were not being recognized, and I realized that I could not force others to respect me. I believed that respect would come naturally over time. Having traveled extensively to many countries, I prayed to God to guide me out of Tanzania,” she explained.
Since her move abroad, the singer has embarked on a new chapter, building a family.
She happily announced her pregnancy in February 2023 through an Instagram post, expressing gratitude for God’s timing. On February 13th, she proudly shared the first photo of her son, Shah Rukh on Instagram.
