From the Studio Am now six months old as a promoter of a young, and upcoming musician. He is also my friend. I was appointed when he had already chosen his stage name; Baba i. I’m sketchy why he chose that name.
We (am part of the team now) sing mainly in Runyankole, with interludes of Swahili. So far we have released two songs; Busy, which illustrates the daily hussle of the common youth, as he attempts to put food on the table. The other is Okukunda, a lamentation of a young man for his lover. We are currently in studio, finalizing our third song, that will be out soon.
Baba i is a hit on airwaves in western Uganda. But as all other musicians, fruits of the hard work all enjoyed by the pirates (not from the Somalia coastline) of the industry.
We will be realizing videos of the songs as soon as funds permit.
Baba i is a young and upcoming musician, based in Ibanda district, Western Uganda. In his mid-20s, he is as Raymo says, motivational working with. He has exceptional talent. All the songs are personal written, which gives him a parental link. I now embark on a task, to see to this young man achieve his dream, the road looks bumpy. Very many have slipped along the way. Others have endured. Some have attained cult status.
I will keep you posted.
