In another quest for greatness, the Klear Kut rapper sought the music counsel of the evergreen legendary songstress and Afrigo Band lead vocalist in the person of Joanita Kawalya. A very odd pairing from the onset with almost absolutely nothing in…

Just when you always think that he has hit rock bottom, he comes out unscathed and with something new up his sleeves. The English Grammar jury is always out to prosecute him with the media scavenging on anything left of his reputation to make something of a mockery out of him but he will not care one bit. He will just smile as he crucifies every English syllable there is on offer. Really cool guy. As the dust from the Sylvia Owori and…

By Isaac Mites Scandalous information sipping in from the organizers of the Miss Uganda pageant and current franchise owners Kezzi Entertainment, owned by celebrated makeup artiste and designer Brenda Nanyonjo, is that the franchise is again up for grabs.
