Two artists. One song. A 50/50 deal that somehow still left somebody feeling shortchanged. The collaboration between Cindy Sanyu and Omega 256 on “See You Tonight” was supposed to be a win for both sides. Instead it has become one of the messiest money disputes Uganda’s music industry has seen in recent memory — and now a growing number of voices are stepping in to say what many have been thinking.

It started with one singer saying she couldn’t love children that weren’t biologically hers. It ended with one of Uganda’s most respected veteran voices stepping into the conversation — and the response she gave is the kind people screenshot and send to their group chats without saying a word. Annet Nandujja didn’t shout. She didn’t drag anyone. She just spoke — clearly, directly, and with the kind of weight that only comes from a woman who has lived enough life to mean every syllable. Her message to young women entering relationships with men who already have children was simple, sharp,…

And in his view, it’s not necessarily a positive shift. “People Have Stopped Reading” Gaetano did not…
