Jose Chameleone is no doubt a godfather in Uganda’s music. Any doubts? Well, if anyone doubts that, then he/she must have spent the whole day sipping on a pot of malwa and getting silly along the way. How about Irene Ntale? I still rank Irene as one of the few best vocalists around. Do you remember Nkubukinze? No? Listen to it. Now, these two combined talents to do Easy. I didn’t see it coming. But then again, Irene Ntale seems to be on a free fall lately. She is on a highroad to stardom city. Or she has already reached. She changed her genre of music and here with her, with Easy.
I find Easy too laborious to listen to. I mean, the whole combination of Chameleone and Irene, to me, didn’t hit the deepest notes. It is a song that you can forget quickly. And you shouldn’t do a song people will forget easily. It just sinks and destroys the reputation you have built over time. The video of Easy, too, is not stuff you would expect from these two. Okay, I know the director is to blame and all, but the artistes always have a say, don’t they? To many, it may pass as a decent video. Fine, it is decent. It is a tad artistic with sprinkles of creativity. But the lights were too much which makes it too vague and hard to keep up. You want to slay me? Go ahead. Slit my jugular. I loved the part where everything slowed down into a slow motion. That took some creative head to pull off. But most of the shots in the video are either too shouting in color, or too blurry which makes the video too painful to watch. Average song and an equally average video!
