Three of Uganda’s most recognisable voices—Bobi Wine, King Saha and Nubian Li—have come together on a new track that blends powerful social commentary with deep musical chemistry.
Photos shared by King Saha earlier this week showed the trio at Audio One studios, the Kampala-based hub run by long-time producer Paddy Man. With mixing desks, headphones and mic stands in the background, the images captured an unmistakable energy: artists mid-creation, immersed in the process.
“As it’s said; where words fail, music speaks,” King Saha wrote on X (formerly Twitter), adding “Maaso Ku Lutimbe”—a Luganda phrase loosely translated as “Eyes on the screen.” It offered a poetic hint at the project’s direction.
Now that song has arrived. Titled ‘Not Your Enemy’, the track was released on YouTube on Wednesday evening and has quickly picked up momentum—garnering more than 38,000 views and 6,000 likes in its first 24 hours.
In a statement accompanying the video’s premiere, Bobi Wine described the song as a rallying call.
“In a time when division and oppression threaten to silence the voices of the people, we come together in this revolutionary track to speak for the voiceless,” he said. “Not Your Enemy is more than just music—it’s a message. A reminder that the real enemies are not each other, but the systems that keep us down.”
The collaboration marks a significant moment in Ugandan music, uniting three artists with reputations for fusing melody with meaning. All three have carved out careers shaped by more than just chart success—they’re known for weaving in themes of justice, identity and resilience.
For fans, it’s a long-awaited moment—and potentially one of the standout musical moments of the year.
