MUSIC CAREER : Started way back in 2009 when I was in A Level at Mbarara High School- Chaapa. I recorded my first song entitled 'Narrow Way' from JK Studios in Mbarara. However I was discouraged by my parents who stopped me from singing saying that I was goin to fail in Academics because of Music. however I would always sing in Church choirs and every time I Finished presenting, people would appreciate me, something that encouraged me to continue developing my talents.
I would write songs several times but had no money to record them and given the fact that I had been stopped by my Parents, I ended up almost losing hope and focus on my talent. However, with the new curriculum that was introduced in 2020 in secondary schools, where it requires a teacher to integrate ICT in teaching and learning; which includes the use of audio, sounds, videos ( audio visual ) it became imperative for me to ignite my talent. This is because every time I used Audio -Visual Teaching Aids, my classes would be so interesting.
I used this opportunity and wrote songs for my classes that were doing projects on different topics as well as helped them to record the music. I have also been able to record two songs of my own. I look forward to recording as many songs as possible , almost on every topic taught in the lower secondary curriculum in Kiswahili Language.
