Ugandan musicians apparently still have a lot of work to do in breaking into the international market. This after Jamaican-American musician Tarrus Riley, who is in the country for the Swangz All Star concert, revealed that he does not know any Ugandan artistes.
The Reggae star who is Uganda for the first time made the remark during a press briefing held at Mestil Hotel on Wednesday morning.
“I don’t know any Ugandan musician, but I will be early at the concert venue so as to learn and interact with the Ugandan artistes,” he noted. “I want to leave Uganda with a favorite Ugandan musician.”
Nonetheless, Tarrus has not ruled out the possibility of a collaboration with a Ugandan musician. He noted that if he feels the vibe of any the local musicians, he might end up in studio with them as he urged the artistes to bring out their A-game when they perform at the Swangz All Star concert which will be take place this Friday at Lugogo Cricket Oval.
