GNL Zamba is no doubt a celebrated rapper/Hip Hop artiste, poet and creative at large. We might not say so much about his business acumen before we speak of the music that most of us know him for. The stories, the riddles, myths, legends and culture he brought to Hip Hop that would some how …
“Grace” is the latest offering from Jay Arc Mwesigwa with most of the lines addressing his love for his mother Grace and to all single mothers taking care of their children. It’s this grace that he brings forward. He raps over a Jazz -Hip hop fused beat with ease and a calculated delivery.
The song is more of a letter direct to Jay Arc’ mother and to others. It’s his “Dear mama” moment as he gives her reassurance. The rapper and Apparel owner is apparently here with music and we hope for more from him soon.

As part of Arsenal’s move to unveil and create buzz for new signing of Ghanaian Thomas Teye Partey, the team has been sharing and here and there about Partey. In a video showing Partey’s reactions, Big Tril’s “Parte After Parte” is one of the songs played. To Big Tril and his fans; this confirms how big the song went: Europe as well. Remember Cardi B dancing to the song?

Big Tril also came out to confirm he made lots of money off “Parte After Parte” this was after a tweet we tagged him on, inline with whether he secured the bag. He also jokes he might become an Arsenal fan and won’t troll The Gunners anymore.
We should be expecting some new music from him according to his recent tweets.
Rewatch and Re-listen to the song below:
“Bad” is entirely a bad girl ting besides the ignorable cameo that Krackbone makes at the beginning of the visual. Krack and his Ace Plug Entertainment released an Afro-centric and futuristic album, EGO with hip hop at its core in August this year. To carry on the campaign, “Bad” off the album has a visual now. The song was produced by Yung Jey Basalesale.
In order of appearance: Afekuru, Tushi Polo,Kvan, Lady Slyke, Ella and Vkaycee bless us with their mic abilities and supreme beauty to match the music. The ladies show skin here and there call it a melanin show, endowment in a visual well chopped by Grate Make /Pest. To the set an Afro – Urban feel is brought out in line with the themes of the album. Of the ladies, rapper Lady Slyke happens to be the longest performing artist out of the posse. She is more of the old guard passing the torch to the new breed of female artistes – she excites with so much youth.
“Bad” visual expresses the feminine power, fashion and emphasises that ladies/women ran the world and thus an anthem is here. We get dancehall, Rnb and rap at its best with no limit – which is actually the agenda on this project. This is certainly the face of Ugandan music that needs to be supported for stars are already born it’s up to us to get with the program.

“Brother’s Keeper” is the lastest visual out off the long teased A Few Good Friends album. Lyrical G, Krackbone, Mal-X spit about their beloved brothers and friends in the spirit of the phrases “I am my brothers keeper”. Koz and Effect makes a brief appearance in the visual that has its highlight on the scenes Mal-X talks to his friend/brother about what life choices he has made.
Mal-X plays both roles. Akongo is employed to give soothing spirited backings on the project.
A Few Good Friends (AFGS) is a collective of carefully picked collaborators to make friends .
