Weasel was born in 1985. He attended Happy Hours Nursery and Primary School and was very brilliant. He topped the class all through.
He was very quiet, to the extent that when he was around, his voice was only heard when he wanted food.
All through primary school, he did not show any love for music. He joined St. Balikuddembe SS, Mitala Maria and studied up to Senior Four, but refused to study further after seeing Chameleone’s success.
“We felt terrible and advised him to pursue music alongside his studies. His father even gave him money to pursue adult education, but he only studied for three weeks and told us he was going to attend a musicians’ convention in America. We let him go, but when he returned, he said he could no longer be enslaved. That made him work even harder to succeed in his career. He was mentored by his brother, Chameleone.” A family member told us.
Douglas Mayanja a.k.a Weasel is part of the Goodlyfe crew, with Mowzey Radio. The duo hit the music scene in 2008 and have since had hits like Zuena, Nakudata, Lwaki Onumya and Nyambura.
They have released so many songs in a space of 7 years….we celebrate them this year.
