KEKO JOINS BABOON FOREST AS PLATINUM ENTERTAINMENT SIGNS KLEAR CUT

Keko’s rise to stardom has taken everyone by surprise due to the fact that she has been active in the music industry for only a year. One guy credited for her success is Shadrack of platinum entertainment. But shockingly, we woke up to info last Thursday that Keko has switched management from Platinum to Baboon forest camp. An insider tells us Keko alleges that Shadrack’s failure to book her performances is the main reason why the two fell out. Keko under platinum became a household name in the hip hop genre with just “How we do” and “kwekunyakunya” the remix in which she’s featured alongside Juliana and Cindy. She is the first female artist from Uganda to perform at the big brother eviction ceremony; she recently became one of the few East African artists to be interviewed on Channel O and was a few weeks back voted breakout and best Female artist of the year in the just concluded Buzz Teeniez Awards. Keko has now joined the likes of MunG, Gnl and Big Trill in the Baboon camp. Meanwhile after falling out with Keko, Shadrack turned all his guns to Klear Kut and the latest is that he last Friday secured JB and Myth as his latest recruitments in platinum Entertainment. Shadrack, is the main guy who single handedly lifted the hip hop genre by nurturing half of the hip hop artists in Uganda like GNL, Don Mc, Keko,  among others.

CHAMELEONE CHANGES STAGE NAME

Chameleon is one artist who will never seize to amuse us. When we think he’s run out of ideas, he bounces back and does things that will make everyone talk. The singer we can confirm has added figures to his name thus becoming chame000,000. Chameleon real names Joseph Mayanja has had a variety of stage names like Heavy weight, Dr, Proffessor, Atagejja, Atakogga among others but promises to stick to the new names.   Chameleon adopted the new name two months back but only started using it in his latest “Owakabi” video. So if anyone happens to come across Chame000,000, just know it’s the original “Katupakase” singer.
