I just want to clear something up once and for all because I'm honestly getting tired of this question
A lot of people keep asking whether I'm Kuku, Madi, or where exactly I belong. Some even inbox me asking the same thing, while others seem confused because I sing in different languages.
To be honest, I don't see music that way.
All I know is that Kuku and Madi people share strong historical, cultural, and family connections, and I've always had love and respect for both. If I sing in either of those languages, I still feel connected to the people and culture.
But more importantly, music is a universal language.
People listen to songs from all over the world without understanding every word. Someone can enjoy an Arabic song, an English song, a Jamaican song, or any other music and still feel the emotion behind it. That's what music does — it connects people.
Just because I sing in a language doesn't mean I have to fit into one box. Artists all over the world sing in different languages because they love the sound, the culture, and the people. That's part of being an artist.
What surprised me the most was when I was nominated for an award and, instead of some people focusing on the music, they were asking where I belong or saying I was confused because I sing in different languages.
I was later told that some people questioned my nomination for that reason. Whether that's true or not, I don't know, but it showed me that we still have a long way to go when it comes to supporting artists beyond tribal labels.
Trust me, I'm not confused.
I know who I am, where I come from, and what I represent.
I just choose not to limit my music to one tribe, one language, or one group of people.
To my fans, thank you for supporting me. Whether I sing in Kuku, Madi, Luganda, English, Arabic, or any other language, enjoy the music if it speaks to you. If you don't like a particular song, that's completely fine too. Everyone has different tastes.
