"I’m honored to be a part of this great movement........" - N'yanda....
N'yanda
Many may remember her from the reggae dance hall duo Brick ‘n’ Lace of the Love is wicked fame and that New Year’s Eve show in Kampala.
N'yanda was the rough rude girl doing most of the rap verses on their songs.
Well long after their concert in Kampala, the duo embarked on solo projects, which saw N'yanda hit up the charts across the world.
Her sexy dancehall remix of Taylor Swift’s “Trouble” spent 6 Weeks on UK’s Urban Club Chart and she’s not showing any signs of slowing down! Not only does she cover songs, she writes her own as well. Her recent hits “Slippery When Wet” and “Boom and Rave” (featuring Mr. Vegas) are blazing the dancehalls.
However, like all the different Jamaican artistes that have been to Uganda, even when they hit the prime time world success, they always yearn to come back and perform here, and fortunately, the bug has hit N'yanda too.
But it’s not just for the music; N'yanda has also been named an ambassador for the Reach A Hand Uganda (RAHU) campaign to address the key issues that leave Ugandan youth vulnerable to health outcomes like, HIV, Sexual Transmittable Infections (STIs), and unintended pregnancy. She has already recorded the official RAHU theme song, Your Ways, which features local artistes; GNL, Ray Signature, Irene Ntale, Big Tril and Maurice Hasa. The song advocate’s for safe sex in addition to helping young people make informed choices.
“I’m honored to be a part of this great movement. People need to be reminded that AIDS still exists and many are still dying from it. We all do this for the love of the music but when you get the opportunity to make a difference and touch hearts, you become purposeful, that’s what’s this means to me,” she said in mail.
Later in March, N'yanda will be heading to Uganda for a concert.
According to a source close to the Jamaican, N'yanda will jet in Uganda for a joint show with our dancehall princess Cindy set for women’s day.
The venue or price for the concert is still a secret though many of the fans are also hoping the two dancehall divas will perform their remix of N'yanda's Slippery and wet.
