East African musicianship is vast as it is diverse. However, due to a lack of proper funding and infrastructure for the arts, the true breadth of the region’s talents tends to be underrepresented. Furthermore, when conversations are had and opportunities are doled out regarding the emergence of African music globally, too often East African voices are left out.

“We’ve celebrated the much-deserved wins of our fellow Africans from the West and the Southern regions of the continent while patiently waiting for our day in the sun.” -Kui Mwai

The Full Full Condition series is an attempt to bring us further out of the shade. It is a series of compilation albums featuring several up-and-coming artists from across East Africa and the diaspora. Tangaza Magazine will be releasing and publicizing an album on an annual basis alongside our yearly print issue. The first volume, featuring acts like EA Wave, Naomisia, Mwami, and mau, is set for release in August 2020 on all major streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, Boomplay, Audiomack, and TIDAL etc.)

“Full Full Condition'' is a term born from a 2011 Ugandan viral video of the same name and now lives in East African colloquialism and meme culture to express the greatest extent of any given situation. One might say “every song on this compilation album is a jam. It’s a full full condition!”
