Talent Africa Uganda has officially unleashed ‘UG Cypher,’ hip-hop with a strong, rhythmic beat and a rapping vocal track with well composed rhythm and talk less of its systematic quality lyrical flow, well-curated very clear and well understood.
The debut single, highlights the exceptional skill of each artist, including Play01, Wonder Jr, Doe Dotta, Ninja C, Ch!ef, Atlas Da African, Ebrahim Soul’O, Tucker HD, Abril, Byg Ben Sukuya, Triggah, TimothyCODE, and Ksl Owakabi, who deliver hard-hitting lyrics with a polished flow.
According to Talent Africa, the beats on the album are also masterpieces in their own right, with Aliddeki Brian’s expertise in African instruments and Sam Lamara’s production knowledge resulting in a perfect fusion of HipHop and African sound. From start to finish, the energy is electric and the talent on display is truly exceptional.
The song indeed brings out the real hip-hop in Uganda’s finest featured in it. If you listen to UG Cypher, you can be sure to distinguish real, rather good rappers from the great ones and the song features only great incredible rappers.
Speaking about the new project, Aly Allibhai Talent Africa CEO could not hold his excitement and was quick to reveal to the media that, “The artists on this project have truly outdone themselves, leaving listeners in awe with their bars. We’re thrilled to share this incredible project with the world and will continue to support the creative arts in Uganda.”
One of the rappers in the country, Prince Benjamin told Kampala Sqoop that the art and music industry needs collective effort from media, events and the record companies to support and promote it from time to time.
“The Ug Cypher was for the better part one of the pillars on hip hop in Uganda. The art needs pillars; Media, Events, Record companies and Projects of dedicated to the Art.
At one time we had Hot 100 fm, Talent Africa, MTN Hip Hop Wards, Bayimba Hip Hip Boot Camp and the Ug Cypher. These were pillars of Hip hop in Ug untill they started to disappear one at a time.
It’s therefore not to be taken for granted that Talent Africa, representing the Record companies has shown that their love for Hip hop didn’t die with the death of “Airport Taxi” Rap Duo.”
He added, “The 6-7 years the Ug Cypher has taken on hold had us really thinking Hip hop would never live again especially after everything that has died.
But this Ug cypher sells hope to rappers, to fans, to the streets. Its important that Talent Africa does not stop doing this. It means a lot for many of us.
Waiting for Ug Cypher 2024.”
Produced by Sam Lamara, UG Cypher incredible music video was shot by Talent Africa Group, TAG Studios, and directed by Cyril Ducottet. It is surely one of the music projects you can’t afford to miss out!
