Uganda’s RnB Kyabazinga Maro to celebrate 10 years Experience in music on Valentine’s day
One of Uganda’s top RnB musicians Ronald Magada professionally known as Maro is set to celebrate 10 years of doing Ugandan music on Valentine’s day.
The celebration will be held as Anjagala Live Concert scheduled 14th February 2020 at Mestil Hotel in Nsambya.
Maro like other Ugandan artistes mentioning Eddy Kenzo, Mowzey Radio and Weasel who held concerts to celebrate 10 years of music, he will also hold a concert to celebrate the milestone.
In a VIP show, he will host the lovers of his music and the fans that have seen him grow to greater heights ever since he broke out on the music scene 10 years ago.
Speaking in an interview, Maro said that the 10 years of music isn’t really a joke and therefore he doesn’t take it for granted. So this is the reason as to why he chose to do his show on Valentine’s Day, a day to celebrate love since his music mostly talks about love.
“For the last 10 years, my music has always mended broken hearts, made people find and others believe in love and February 14 is a day to celebrate love, I decided to hold the Anjagala Live Concert on that day, “said Maro.

By 2009 Maro was featuring on the Ugandan Music scene but his breakthrough was in 2010 after he redid his song ‘Toneeraga’, this time featuring artiste Mickie Wine of the Fire Base Crew.
He is a good vocalist and songwriter who writes most of his songs.
Often Maro sings in his mother-tongue, Lusoga and refers to himself as “RnB Kyabazinga” which is an allusion to the king of his tribe.
As a man who respects cultural norms and values, Maro usually has a saying
“If I don’t represent Busoga, who will do it?”

According to Maro, venturing into music surprised many people, not least his father. He says all along he had been burdened by “being voiceless”.
Maro says he had been humbled by being tossed by different step-mums and spending holidays in different places after his mother died.
He tried expressing himself through drawing and painting. Music was, in a way, a continuation of his search for a voice.
“Everyone couldn’t believe I could make it because of being so silent. Dad even wanted to lock me up claiming that I could only achieve through school, “said Maro.

Still in the struggle, Maro has for the last 10 years held concerts in Kampala and Jinja, a home where he comes from.
Maro has recorded many songs of which some include Genda Ewamwe, Musaayi, Julia, Kamboyine, Embeera Zo, Natereza and Addicted featuring Irene Namubiru and many more.
