Singer Kapeke has criticized Joshua Baraka’s popular song “Wrong Places”, saying it doesn’t resonate with local Ugandan audiences.According to Kapeke, while the song has earned Baraka international recognition and gigs abroad, it doesn’t connect with people in areas like Kibuye, who prefer music with a more local vibe.“I’m tryna be honest here. The promoter in Kibuye knows Nkuteme Ensingo, not Wrong Places,” Kapeke said, implying that the song appeals more to foreign listeners than to the everyday Ugandan audience.Kapeke made the remarks during an interview where he was asked to name artists who performed well last year but haven’t shown up this year. Although he declined to mention names, he noted that several musicians who once pushed him to release music have now gone quiet.Kapeke: ‘Sitya Loss’ is the only Eddy Kenzo song worthy Grammy NominationThere are many who did well last year but are nowhere to be seen this year. Most of them encouraged me to release music, but now, I feel I’ve left them behind. On the issue of collaborations, Kapeke says that he only works with artists who are genuinely loved by the people.Before I do a collabo with someone, I make sure that artist is loved by the masses. There are big artists who are no longer liked, and I can’t risk doing a song with them. @galaxytvug Kapeke says Joshua Baraka’s song Wrong places doesn’t touch the ground Your thoughts 🤔 #JikonkoneRewind ♬ original sound – galaxytvug The post Kapeke: Joshua Baraka’s ‘Wrong Places’ lacks local appeal appeared first on MBU.
