The release follows the announcement made by Kenneth Mugabi months before that he will be releasing a record sale of 50 premium physical copies, each at $100 (approximately UGX 350K) which are available on request.

Kenneth Mugabi recently signed a music distribution contract with Black Market Records; an international music distribution and publishing label. The contract gave Black Market rights to distribute some of his music content and albums outside Uganda.

The move is aimed to expand his brand on an international level. 'People Of The Land' is the first project under the label.

‘People Of The Land’ is Mugabi’s third studio album following ‘Ugandan’ (released on 29th August 2019) and his debut album ‘Kibunomu’.
