President Yoweri Museveni’s recent cash hand-out to Ugandan musicians who recorded the praise song Tubonga Nawe (We’re With You) for his electoral campaign has left the local music industry divided.
In a rejoinder, Denmark-based Ugandan rapper Bana Mutibwa released Tetubonga Nawe (We’re Not With You) online on October 24, in Luga Flow, Uganda’s indigenised version of hip hop.
