In February this year, musician Rema Namakula staged a concert at Sheraton Hotel, Kampala, which received a massive turnout from her fans.
Now, events promoter Abitex believes Rema's concert could turn out to be the concert of the year. He explained that it ticked all the boxes from the stage to sound production and featured a great performance from the artist.
"I think it was a great concert, and such a setting happens once a year, and sometimes we don't see such things here. The stage was spectacular, the sound production was on point, and she also delivered a very good performance. I would give her 90%," he said in an interview with a local television station.
Abitex is famously known for promoting the Enkuuka festival, which takes place every year in the Kabaka's palace on the 31st of December.
The Ugandan music industry hates talented artists, says Bafana.
Musician Ziza Bafana was once at the top of the Ugandan industry for over two years. He topped charts, and his music resonated across the country.
The singer, however, separated from Manager Roger, and that was like the last nail in his coffin. He has never returned to the top since.
The dancehall singer now says the industry is afraid of talented musicians and harbors much hate for them. He believes the music industry adores the untalented and disregards talent.
"I think there is a very big problem; this industry hates talented people, and it's the reason some people choose to go into politics. They were never appreciated and never shown love," he said in an interview with a local television station.
Bafana believes that industry people should share love among themselves for their own benefit.
