Journey

Maureen Kabasita, popularly known as Maureen K., is a notable Ugandan artist with a rich tapestry of Afro-fusion, gospel, R&B, and jazz influences. Originating from the Banyoro/Mutooro ethnic group, her musical journey is deeply entwined with the spiritual rhythms of church choirs in Kampala and Rubaga. Her breakthrough came via 'Tusker Project Fame' Season 3, where her performance captivated audiences and secured her position in Uganda’s vibrant music scene. Joining Entebbe’s acclaimed Fusion Band in 2009, she crafted a unique sound featuring an eclectic mix of genres. Her departure from the band in 2015 marked a pivotal shift toward a solo career. Embracing her faith more fully, Maureen's work now orbits around gospel music, as epitomized in her celebrated singles “Gwe Wannonda” and “Akanya Nkasi.” Outside the recording studio, Maureen's life has been a compelling narrative of resilience, with her stories of personal faith, challenges, and motherhood enriching her musical expressions. Her journey embodies a blend of cultural roots and personal evolution within the Ugandan music landscape.
