Rwandan traditional singer Massamba Intore has spoken of his life in music in the coming days.

Coming from a musical family he says that he is now focused on ensuring that his father’s legacy (Athanase Sentore) comes to be by ensuring that 150 songs that he had written are all recorded.

“My father left behind over 150 songs that were not recorded and I want to make sure that they’re all recorded to keep his legacy alive. They are wonderful traditional compositions with great messages. Most of the songs are known by elderly people, but most of the young people don’t know about them, which is the reason I’m recording them,” he told a local media outlet.

Massamba said that though the Rwandan government has announced that it will relax COVID-19 restrictions and allow live performances to resume, he is not having any concert soon.

“I’m not planning any concert at any time soon, because I’m swamped by this project,” he stated adding “but I’m always available to support whoever invites me to perform at their shows.”
