UGANDA: Shifah Musisi Releases Beautiful New Song With Incredible Video

Shifah Musisi is slowly but steadily making her way up the ladder of Ugandan music. Barely a month after she dropped a compelling song titled “Emirembe” from her second studio album, the beautiful songstress with a magical voice has released another musical masterpiece. The new single is titled “Ebilowozo” and is the true definition of good music. Shifah Musisi is a Ugandan singer, songwriter, guitarist and fashion designer who has been on the music scene for a couple of years. Her first album titled “Olugendo” featured songs like “Owoluganda”,”Muntumulamu”, “Olugendo” and “Mukyalo” among others, majority of which still enjoy airplay locally.

Born in Kapeeka, Luwero this songstress has all the makings of a star. In 2016, Shifah Musisi went on tour in Europe, performing in Denmark, Spain, Portugal and Sweden at numerous festivals. Upon her return, she embarked on her second studio album “Dark and happy times” from which her new hits “Emirembe” and “Ebilowozo” are taken. Ebilowozo, produced by the renowned Michael Fingers is simply a class apart from ordinary Ugandan music, from the arrangement of the instruments, the way it builds up to Shifah Musisi’s vocal delivery, everything about “Ebilowozo” perfect. This is the kind of music Uganda should be famous for.

Then there’s the video. If the audio sweeps you off your feet, the video just delivers you to a whole different place altogether. Directed by the talented Loukman Ali, the visuals make the song come to life with a well written story. The video interprets the lyrics to the dot, casting Shifah Musisi as a damsel in distress, waiting for the knight in shining armor to come riding on his beautiful horse and deliver on his promises of true love. Complete with scenes of horses and fiddle playing old men, the video delivers on all fronts.

The song has been well received with famous comedian and Comedy Store executive Alex Muhangi claiming it left him in tears and deserved a Grammy. For afro-soul sensation Shifah Musisi, if the first two songs “Emirembe” and “Ebilowozo” are anything to go by, this second album “Dark and Happy times” might just be the one that launches her to the top of the music charts in and out of Uganda. Watch the space.
