VIDEO: Nkomyewo – Bana Mutibwa

It’s been quite some time since we last heard from Lugaflow Revolutionary Human Rights Activist, Bana Mutibwa. He has now made a powerful return with “Nkomyewo,” which translates to “I’m back.” The track serves a dual purpose: 1) announcing Bana Mutibwa’s musical comeback after a three-year hiatus, and 2) celebrating his selection by the Obama Foundation for the prestigious Obama Leaders program—a significant accomplishment in anyone’s career.
Bana Mutibwa has always consistently used his music to give a voice to the voiceless, addressing various social issues and challenges currently faced by Ugandan citizens. On this particular track he tackles a lot of issues from “drone kidnappings” to fraudulent religious leaders, he tackles these topics while also seeking solutions. Furthermore, the song reflects his journey thus far and advocates for the release of political prisoners.
The accompanying visuals show Bana Mutibwa exploring Mapusa Municipal Market in North Goa, India, interacting with locals. The video then transitions to the ghettos of Uganda, featuring graffiti artist Alexx Page painting a mural of Bana Mutibwa. This demonstrates how hip-hop has been a revolutionary force for Bana Mutibwa, taking him around the world as an activist while remaining deeply rooted in Ugandan communities as an activist who fights for the voiceless using lugaflow rap.
As we eagerly anticipate more music from the former president of End of the Weak Uganda, we look forward to his upcoming album, “Essays of a Revolutionary MC” and join him in celebrating his milestones alongside the rest of the Ugandan Hip-Hop community.

The music video for Kohen Jaycee’s Gundeze perfectly complements the song’s soulful and romantic essence. Staying true to Kohen’s signature style, the visuals are minimalistic yet captivating, set against the serene backdrop of a lush forest. The video follows Kohen as he alternates between intimate moments with his significant other and heartfelt solo performances amidst nature. This simplicity allows the focus to remain on the song’s message of love and connection, making the video a beautiful extension of the track’s uplifting and heartfelt vibe.
The chorus, repeated like a mantra, draws listeners into a melodic trance, while the verses paint a picture of intimacy, trust, and connection.
