Ugandan AfroPop king Big Eye StarBoss unleashes a brand new solo tune dubbed “Sisiba Nte” He’s been one of Uganda’s most consistent artists since breaking through with the viral hit “Indicator” that took East Africa by storm, and this new album keeps that momentum continuing.
Big Eye StarBoss started Big Music Entertainment from scratch from his early days at Big Talent with Eddy Kenzo. That independent spirit has colored his career choices ever since. “Sisiba Nte” is another solo statement from an artist who has never had to depend on a big label to stay relevant in the East African market.
The production leans into the warm, feel-good AfroPop sound that has been the bedrock of Big Eye’s catalogue for many years. The record is driven by melodic layers and steady percussion, but without overcomplicating things. The groove is still there, which is precisely what his audience expects of him.
His delivery has always worked because it sounds like someone having fun with the record instead of playing for an audience.
