Not very many years back, she was one of the biggest local female artistes in the country. Then her hits like Abakyakala Mukyakale and Mwedigidile sent people jumping everywhere, only to mysteriously fade into oblivion.

Not very many years back, she was one of the biggest local female artistes in the country. Then her hits like Abakyakala Mukyakale and Mwedigidile sent people jumping everywhere, only to mysteriously fade into oblivion.
But talent never dies; Chance Nalubega (right) is bouncing back onto the scene. Today at 7:00pm at Sabrina’s pub, she will launch her latest album, Tonkyaawa, with revelers expected to pay sh10,000.
Reputed artistes like Winnie Munyenga, Cathy Kusasira and Lady Aisha are slated to perform. Done to her trademark blend of afro-caribbean
rhythms, the six-track album has re-ignited Chance’s charisma and the veteran singer strongly believes it will bring her back into the spotlight. Tonkawa, the title-track, comes in form of socca. In it she bullies her lover for trying to dump her, claiming that it is her exclusive right as a member of the Ngabi clan to terminate the relationship. Yet more captivating is Nyirira done to reggae-ragga. The somewhat hilarious song has Chance blowing her own trumpet about how cute she looks, saying she attracts men of all kinds. Ennaku y'amasanyalaze laments the intermittent electricity supply in the country and its consequences, of which she highlights increased commodity prices, pervasive darkness at night and setbacks in business for them in the entertainment industry. It is already enjoying airplay on CBS and Simba FM radio stations.
Other tracks on the album are Kandagge and Musajja Ddala, which is critical of men who are supported by women instead of working.
