You must have heard Harriet Kisakye’s song from her latest solo album. The song is already causing a stir on the local music scene. Bad girl Kisakye, as her fans refer to her, first released daring and naughty lyrics, Kandahar and Sentala, that were banned from being aired on some radio stations for being vulgar. The 26-year-old Kisakye says in her new song that men should be put in bottles that must be sealed as a way of taming them! Why? Mbu they are very stubborn. That is what Kisakye’s latest album titled, Service, is all about. However, her artistry is most conspicuous in her chart-bursting gig, Eki Nigeria (though most fans call it Musajja Asaana mu chupa). It is in this track that she says men’s only place is in the bottle. She adds that there is nothing behind her lyrics, only that she detested what her friend was going through caused by her unfaithful husband.“I was inspired by the ordeal my friend, Prossy, was going through. Her husband is unfaithful and mistreats her. He used to beat her like like she was her punching bag,” Kisakye says. She adds that a Nigerian movie titled Sucide Mission she watched also spiced her story in the song. To some people, Kisakye’s songs are controversial. The six-track Afro and slow beat album was released and produced by Joy Tabula in his BK Studio and is being distributed by Dick Production at the old Taxi park. It will be launched on April 22 at Calendar Rest House, Makindye. Tracks on the album are: service (album title), Ki Nigeria, Kankutwale, Valentine, Abantu Bazibu and Kisumuluzo kyange. Kisakye’s songs have won her not only the admiration of musical pundits, but also the support of international promoters as distinguished as SENGO International based in London. Sengo has signed a contract with her to stage a series of concerts in London this Easter weekend. Kisakye started performing with Pride Band.
