The scene is the Tusker Challenge show at Nairobi’s Carnivore shown on UBC. One of the judges, Ian, is having an exchange of words with the show’s presenters including Gaetano Kaggwa.
IAN: … we are tired of producing ‘one-hit wonder’ musicians in East Africa. What we need is popular artistes that can produce hit after hit, album after album.
GAETANO: … but we have them …
IAN: Okay, name me just five artistes in the whole of East Africa that have produced more than one popular album.
GAETANO: Okay. I’ll start with Uganda. We have Chameleon (applause and screams), we have … ummm … Bobby Wine …
IAN (interrupts): … NEVER HEARD OF HIM!
ME (thinking aloud): OUCH!
