Rapper Navio goes Traditional in Njogereza

Navio's Njogereza video out

Navio is known for his rap songs but his latest Njogereza hit is a traditional love themed song. It's off his Chosen album. In the song, Daniel Kigozi aka Navio blends it with a bit of hip-hop something that hasn't happened before, he is hoping it becomes a Kwanjula anthem.

Back then, Navio could not do a Luganda song but not anymore. His previous Luganda attempts like 'Naawuliranga' and Mbamalawo, the rapper is helped or does a bit of broken Luganda but in Njogereza, the number one rapper is so fluent.

Twelve years back, he was quoted as saying he could not do a song in a language he could not speak but with the likes of Dvid Lutaalo trying out English via his 'Sooooo Nice' and Omutujju doing wonders with his 'Broken English' song, Navio is left with no choice but to attack.

The video was shot from Entebbe Botanical Gardens.

"This song just gave me chills," Ex-Miss Uganda, Aysha Salma wrote.

"He put swagg into Kadongo Kamu omgucci I love it. Did I just see the dab in this video," Socialite Sue Ochola added.

Leka Kwenyumiriza and Bugumu which he prefers to pronounce as 'Buguma' are some of his Luganda songs.
