Jose Chameleon announces he’s about to become a grandfather

The Mayanja musical family is ushering in a new generation, as Ugandan music legend Jose Chameleone prepares to become a grandfather for the first time.

A New Chapter for the Mayanja Family

The singer, whose real name is Joseph Mayanja, is set to welcome his first grandchild after his eldest son, Abba Marcus Mayanja, revealed that he is expecting a baby with his girlfriend.

The announcement emerged in April 2026, with Abba and his partner, identified as Angel, sharing their journey publicly through social media posts documenting the pregnancy.

Life Abroad and Growing Responsibilities

Abba, 20, is currently based in the United States, where he has been focusing on his education and athletic career as a competitive swimmer. Reports indicate that the expectant mother is around 19 weeks pregnant, placing the couple close to the halfway point of the journey.

The young pair have been openly expressing their excitement, posting photos and videos that capture key milestones and moments from their relationship.

From Stardom to Family Milestone

For Jose Chameleone, the news marks a significant personal shift. Having dominated the East African music scene for over two decades, the celebrated artist is now stepping into a new role beyond the stage.

At 46, the transition into grandfatherhood adds a fresh dimension to his public and private life, moving from his well-known “Doctor” persona to embracing family legacy.

Abba’s Journey

Abba Marcus Mayanja first gained attention in Uganda as a child star, excelling both as a swimmer and as an emerging rapper under the name “Abba T-Rex.” He later relocated abroad to further his ambitions.

As the couple continues to share updates, attention is now firmly on the anticipated arrival of the newest member of the Mayanja family.
