UGANDA NEWS OF WEEK

Thursday, 17th November, 2011


DSTV’s Comedy Club has been in Kampala throughout the week. But only a lucky 60 people per day were able to watch the shows that will later be televised on DSTV’s M-Net East channel.

These were studio recording sessions where “cut, cameralights- action” interfered with the intensity of the shows. Although the comedians came from all over East Africa, they related more to the Ugandan experience.

Zambian Bob, the only non- East African, gave our very own Straka Mwezi a larger-than-life representation in physical and symbolic terms.

Mobile Money – Margla
It has actually been a while since we heard such dancehall from a lady thus making her the only one that we have at the moment. Straight from the way that she dresses and behaves says she has an attitude which I think is necessary for any musician. Back to Mobile Money…all of in Uganda know it’s the easiest way of sending, receiving and af late clearing bills. Margla sings about all this in this song like electricity Bills, Rent, food bill and so on.

With just two years in the music industry, Keko has become one of the most successful hip hop artists after she won a Channel O music video award a thing most artists have failed to do.
