Pastor Wilson Bugembe recently shared insights into his collaboration with the Streams of Life Choir for their latest song, “Gwe Katonda.”
Bugembe, a prominent Ugandan gospel artist and pastor, admitted he was the one who initiated the partnership, having been deeply impressed by the choir’s talent and dedication.
While discussing the success of “Gwe Katonda,” Bugembe expressed both gratitude and astonishment at how quickly the song gained traction. Within just two days of its release, the track had surpassed 100,000 views on YouTube—far exceeding the performance of his previous single, “Tonsobola,” which took an entire month to reach similar numbers.

Recalling the collaboration’s inception, Bugembe shared, “I found them singing and marveled at their talent. I asked them if I could be part of their work, and they agreed.”
Though initially uncertain about how it would turn out, he is now grateful for how smoothly the project came together. “Initially, I was worried if it would work out, but I am thankful to God that it indeed worked out,” he said.
Even while on a visit to the United States, Bugembe remained closely involved in the project. The choir sent him a demo of “Gwe Katonda,” and he was blown away by the quality of their work. Bugembe played the song daily, feeling its deep spiritual resonance.
“I played it every morning because it puts God where He belongs,” he explained. “You cannot play that song and Satan hangs around.”
