Talanta - Elly Wamala

Have you ever asked yourself what music was like in Uganda (way) back in the day? Before all the sleek computers and mobile phones. If you don’t know what was going on, here is a little bit about the late 80s and early 90s period. First things first, people still made music, and it was just as good as some of the music of today or even better.

One of the types of music that was popular, and still is today was Kadongo Kamu. If you’re Ugandan, you’ve probably heard this term before and for those that don’t know what it is, it is a genre or style of music that blends Country and Folk with the singing commonly done over music from one dry acoustic guitar.
