“3RD SEPTEMBER TMW, I make 5 years in this music industry ♥️Thank you thank you♥️
What has been your Experience with Ykee benda music since 3rd September 2016?”
His breakthrough song was Farmer with Sheeba and fans loved the song and him in particular. He didn’t go back till now.
He has produced a number of songs that have been hits and ground breaking in the industry. A few of them that made a remarkable mark are Malaika, Singa, Onabayo among others.
Obviously, there have been some downs for him. There were some seasons that music just didn’t go well but that is how the industry is.
There was a time also when he had a verbal fight with his fans over his real work at the Uganda Musician Associations.
His fans wanted him to intervene in the arrest of Nubian Li, a fellow musician. He spent that whole night exchanging words with his fans.
However, it’s a good milestone for him. It is not easy lately keeping up with the business because of the high competition.
Musicians come and go just after a year. We have so many one hit wonders that we remember after scratching our heads too much. So, five years are worth a cheer in the air.

![[dropcap]A[/dropcap] section of women in Bugongo parish and Nawangaiza parish in Nawandala Sub County, Iganga District have decried the near-impossible terms set for them to access GROW funds. They have now petitioned their woman member of parliament for Iganga Hon. Kauma Sauda Alibaawo to ask the government for revised terms and conditions. This is to enable them to benefit from the program. The disgruntled women accuse the implementers of the program of charging the money. They are also asking for their land titles and land agreements. They said that such properties are governed by their husbands. These, therefore want the government through their woman MP to intervene and revise the requirements for one to benefit. The women were on Wednesday at Namabwere primary school in Nawandala Sub County. They had gathered in their respective groups to receive over 300 chickens from Hon Alibaawo in her campaign to improve the livelihood of women in Iganga district. Each group was given 50 chicken as start-up capital in their journey to prosperity. Read what some leaders said; Ms Naigambi Lydia from Nawandala Trading Centre says, “They solicited money from us through opening bank accounts and depositing Shs80,000. They also asked for land titles and land agreements from us yet we don’t have such things. I was informed that I needed to have a business with a capital of Shs4m yet my capital was very small.” The chairperson Kisoboka Saving Group in Nawandala Ms. Nakagolo Faith said they were not able to join the program. This is given the many conditions attached. She also asked their woman MP to raise their concerns to the relevant offices. The MP condemned the mode of implementation of the program. She cited that it has turned to benefit the well-off class of women other than the intended group. She further asked the government to intervene saying the current strings attached to the programme are very tight to accommodate a common woman. GROW project is a Government of Uganda initiative that arose out of the need to respond to the needs of women entrepreneurs. This is especially those who want to grow their businesses, sustain their self-employment and create more jobs.
