Is This Rapper Sauce Kid Wanted In USA For Credit Fraud? (Video)

Nigerian rapper Sauce Kid, now known as Sinzu might be in big trouble.



A recent surveillance video released online has shown someone who looks like the rapper perpetrating debit card fraud in the city of Houston.

A US local website ABC 7 has reported that authorities are currently looking for a man wanted for withdrawing money from a victim’s bank account at an ATM in Walgreen’s store on 8535 South Braeswood, Southwest Houston on March 2, 2014.


The surveillance video shows a man with very close similarities to Sinzu’s current physical characteristic which includes his prominent dreadlocks and bushy beards. The suspect is seen at an ATM, swiping what appeared to be a card with the woman’s account information on it. After obtaining more than $300, the suspect then purchased multiple gift cards at the cash register, according to police.

According to Houston Police, ‘The suspect is described only as a black male, 20 to 30 years old, 5 feet 7 to 6 feet 2 inches tall and 150 to 190 pounds. He had a mustache and beard, and long dreadlocks’.

This fits the Nigerian rapper’s exact appearance.

NET placed a call to the Houston public safety organization Crime Stoppers who confirmed the incident but refused to confirm if they had established the identity of the unidentified man. They also don’t have an idea who Sinzu is (at least not for now).

‘We can’t confirm to you if we’ve identified the person. We can however take down any details you have of the person in the video’, a young lady told our reporter on the phone after putting him on hold for several minutes.

Efforts to reach the rapper, real name Babalola Falemi have proved abortive as he has not responded to our messages. We also noticed Sinzu has deleted his Instagram page.


Sinzu made his music debut in 2006 with the single ‘Omoge wa jo’ featuring renowned singer Mike Okri. He released his first project ‘Money Long The Mixtape’ under QBeats then managed by Tiwa Savage’s manager/husband Tunji ‘Tee-Billz’ Balogun (formerly known as T-Billion). He signed to Storm Records in late 2008 and released his debut album ‘African American’.

Friends close to the rapper tell NET he may have added other strange businesses to his rap career.

‘He is into many other things. The kind of money he spends isn’t from his credit card’, one friend tells NET.

On his IG page, Sinzu is well known for posting photos suggesting he’s spending large amounts of Dollar bills, mostly taken at strip clubs and house parties. The rapper is also known for rapping about his high-end lifestyle on his recent songs.

His latest video titled ‘Dubai trips’, shows him spending wads of cash in a strip club. It is believed this video is original footage adapted into a music visual.

Story developing.
