King Saha did not need a crowded stage to command the attention of thousands at Kololo Independence Grounds.
That was one of the things that stood out to Katikamu North MP Denis Sekabira during the singer’s “Tondeka E Kololo Festival” on August 14.
Sekabira, who also serves as the Shadow Minister for Internal Affairs, praised Saha for showing what a strong live performer can do with his voice and presence.
I want to thank him for doing things international artists do. The stage is good. He is performing now, but on stage, there are few people. He is alone. He sings, and you see him and hear him, and I believe other artists can also do the same thing.
But the stage was not the only thing that caught his attention.
The huge turnout also spoke to the relationship Saha has built with his fans.
For Sekabira, the singer’s willingness to stand with ordinary people has helped create a loyal audience.
For King Saha, it is expected because he stands with people. We have our stresses as people, and that is what brings us. So, if you are with us, we shall be with you.
That observation led Sekabira to a broader message for musicians, especially those still trying to establish themselves.
He warned against rushing to imitate artists who have already made their mark.
Singing is a job. Do it well, package it well, and we shall love it and support it. I want to urge other musicians, especially the young ones, not to rush to do what established artists are doing. Let them build their craft.
Saha’s own journey, he suggested, shows why patience matters.
King Saha did not just start singing yesterday. He has been at it for years, building his craft and working his way up to the legacy he carries today.
