NIGERIAN SINGER TIWA SAVAGE SET FOR KAMPALA TOUR IN DECEMBER
Many Ugandans thought that Jamaican star, Tarrus Riley would close Ugandan’s entertainment calendar 2018, but we have been informed that music lovers will be blessed with more international acts.
Tiwa Savage from Nigeria and Jamaica’s rising star Kranium will be in Kampala in December.
The date and venue is still under wraps but Uganda’s leading telecom company, MTN Uganda is behind this concert for another episode of their popular Pulse campaign.
Kemar Donaldson popularly known as Kranium, is a Jamaican reggae and dancehall singer known for his 2013 hit single “Nobody Has To Know” which gave him an international recognition and led him to signing to Atlantic Records record label.
Tiwa Savage the new queen of Africa music needs no introduction.
This will be her second time visiting Kampala. The 38 years old sang hits like “Keys to the city”,”If I start to talk ft Dr SID,Girlie O ft Patoranking, among many others.
ALL ARTISTES ARE FOOLS EXCEPT BOBI WINE—APASS
Ugandan Dancehall singer Apass alias Alexander Bagonza has come out to accuse artistes of not using their power and influence to be the voice of the voiceless.
Singer Apass is well known for attacking fellow musicians. He has attacked and insulted almost every musician.
While appearing on a local TV station for an interview, Apass accused fellow artistes for being hypocrites before labelling them fools for allegedly giving the recently introduced OTT tax a deaf ear.
Its remembered that Apass and Bobi Wine plus other media personalities actively took part in OTT tax demostration in the city centre a few weeks ago.
“We have the power and the voice to stop this exploitation by the government but most artistes pretend like everything is ok. It is only I and Bobiwine, who took an initiative to strongly oppose and talk for the oppressed common person. Actually, all artistes except Bobi wine are fools because they are useless to the common person. In our WhatsApp forum as entertainers, we planned a demostration against this OTT tax but I was suprised that I was talking to only Bobi Wine in a group of more than 150 people. These guys did not appear anywhere on the day of demonstration. They have never shared anything against OTT tax on their social media platforms,” the “Dididada” hit maker lamented.
However, some of the entertainers that were attacked by Apass have labelled him a joke and noise maker.
