Chaka Fattah. Per wiki, Chaka was born with a perfectly normal name. For a WHITE PERSON.
(Arthur Davenport). Yeah. I can see why he’d wanna go all Chaka Fattah here.
It’s a name that makes “Barack Obama” sound downright American in comparison. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL’
I didn’t know he was born “Arthur Davenport”
Chaka is probably an alternate transliteration of “Shaka”, the name of a famous Zulu King. It derives from the name of “an intestinal beetle that causes abdominal bloating and menstrual irregularities”. Shaka Zulu’s mom had a rough pregnancy that she blamed on the beetle, so she named her son after it.
“Fattah” is apparently the surname of his stepfather who adopted him. The stepfather must be a Black Muslim. “Fattah” means “conqueror” and is one of the names of Allah. Chaka himself claims to be a baptist. This is not unusual, I know of an athlete with a Black Muslim name (from the dad) who is a Christian (like his mom I guess).
His mother is known as “Queen Mother Falaka Fattah” for some reason. Obviously she’s the one who messed up his head with the afro stuff. She and husband run a home for boys called the “House of Umoja”.
