Ugandan businesswoman Prima Kadarshi has sparked debate and drawn attention to the latest hit song “Kukyala Na Kubwa” featuring top female Ugandan singers under the alias Six Killaz (Nandor Love, Ava Peace, Recho Rey, Jowy Landa, Nina Roz, and Zafaran).
In a recent social media post, Kadarshi expressed her candid opinions on the song, citing concerns about its lyrical content and impact on the younger generation.
Kadarshi began her critique by clarifying that her comments were not intended as a personal attack on the artists involved but rather as an honest assessment of the song’s quality. She raised objections to what she perceived as immoral messages conveyed in the song, arguing that such content could negatively influence impressionable youth.
Furthermore, Kadarshi asserted that “Kukyala Na Kubwa,” despite its purported theme of uplifting a depressed generation, fell short of artistic standards and could potentially harm the careers of the artists involved, particularly Nina Roz, Zafaran, and Ava Peace.
“First of all, I have no reason to chase clout. Second, I am not dissing the artists or their work. With respect, this song falls short. You cannot sing about partying and getting high when you are part of the younger generation that our kids are starting to look up to,” Kadarshi expressed on her Facebook page.
She expressed sympathy for Zafaran, whom she described as having “decent talent,” but lamented seeing it wasted on what she termed “trash.” Kadarshi also urged Nina Roz to return to her previous style, which she believed set her apart, and criticized Ava Peace for her involvement in such music, despite acknowledging her beauty and talent.
“Kukyala Na Kubwa,” translated as “Partying and Getting High” in Luganda, was spearheaded by Team No Sleep music camp, led by renowned Ugandan talent manager Jeff Kiwa.
The song, performed by a group of promising young talents dubbed “Six Killaz,” has gained significant traction and is currently one of the trending jams in the country.
The critique from Kadarshi underscores the diverse opinions surrounding the music industry’s direction in Uganda, particularly regarding the messages conveyed through popular songs and their potential impact on society, especially the youth.
