Dancehall musician Ziza Bafana has expressed disappointment with Ugandan music, urging artists to enhance their manufacturing and supply.
On his social media platforms, Bafana voiced his frustration with what he calls “bubblegum” music, insisting it should cease for the sake of the trade. He warned that many musicians will change into impoverished in the event that they proceed releasing such music.
“We should change the music productions, and these bubblegum lyrics should cease instantly. Otherwise, I see lots of faux artists/musicians turning into farmers and beggars!” he wrote.
Naira Ali echoed Ziza Bafana’s issues about Ugandan music, emphasizing the necessity for change. She criticized up to date artists for releasing “nonsense” and expressed her disappointment.
“I’ve seen lots of new Ugandan artists, however what are you even singing? Total nonsense! What is going on to our music trade? What is occurring? My goodness! The music could be very dangerous,” she defined.
“Guys, let’s do one thing. It’s been some time since I listened to Ugandan music, and it’s such a heartbreak. I’m so upset. Where are the actual artists? Where are the actual gifted individuals? What are we as much as?” she added.
However, fellow musician Rickman disagreed with Bafana and Ali, arguing that artwork has no formulation or limits. He said that artists can select to be as instructional or so simple as they need.
“I’m uninterested in the phrase ‘Ugandan music trade has no music,’ ‘artists should not having good lyrics,’ blah blah…. Art has no formulation and no limits. You will be as much less educative as you need or very educative in your craft. If you don’t need it, don’t purchase it or hearken to it,” he defined.
