Legendary Rapper G.N.L Zamba released his ‘Spear’ Album a year ago and we can’t say it was a great success in Uganda because it did not enjoy massive airplay on both Radio and TV.
However, the rapper claims made him a whopping UGX 1 billion from the 11 tracks on it.
According to GNL Zamba, his ‘The Spear’ album was downloaded over 100,000 times on a streaming platform he owns and has total control of, therefore he was able to closely monitor all his downloads.
“How I made a billion shillings during Lockdown on an album that didn’t play on the radio and without a show. 100,000 Paid downloads. On an independent platform I own and control, (not Spotify, not YouTube or Apple) but gnlzamba.com. Understanding Email Marketing, A monetized international fan base, Understanding ownership and the purpose of the Afropunk (Hip-hop/Rock) movement in fighting for justice in the era of universal Pan Africanism and Black Lives Matter,” Legendary rapper Zamba shared on his platforms.
‘The Spear’ album mainly addresses celebrating the small wins in personal growth, Lugaflow and Black excellence.
It is a blend of both Luganda and English. The album was produced by Fly Tucker at Los Angeles based L’Atelier Studios and has a total of 11 tracks including; ‘Black Ceaser’, ‘Africa’, ‘Black Red Yellow Blue’, ‘Boarders’, ‘Energy’, ‘Sweet Uganda (Star Taffa)’, ‘The Spear’, ‘Wake The…Up’, ‘Who Got The Power’, ‘Zamba The Great’ and ‘Zim Zim Bombo’
