She claimed that she did it for her hit song “Ekimbewo” that gained massive air rotation on the few media stations that were availabe during the time.
I was the first person to create a proper music video, not just a stage performance. I did it for the song Ekimbewo.
Halima Namakula also shared that she started her music career in her 30s when she already had children but looked younger than her age.
Soon, she will be marking 52 years in the creative arts with a VIP concert at Kampala Serena Hotel.
I started singing when I was in my 30s and already had children, but I looked younger than my age. I’m in the creative arts, and that’s why my name has remained relevant.
