Releasing an album is the dream of almost every local artist around town. Well, they get loaded after launching these albums but most of them later tend to slow down in performance. Take a look at these artists:

Rafiki of the popular ‘Coga style’ entered the local music industry with the Afro-beat quality that positioned him with international stars.

We saw him stock awards at home but, after releasing his ‘Icyambere’ album, the husky voiced star has remarkably slowed down.

You also remember Aime Uwimana, a ‘Salux Awards’ nominee for the best male gospel category for 2008. He was one of the guys running gospel music before unleashing his ‘Ninyiye Ahera album.’

Most fans have reason to wonder why he has been more passive since then!

Tom Close is yet another lad who came as a ‘messiah’ to the industry that knew little about R’nB, being named ‘artist of the year’ for 2008. He reduced spirit after the time of launching his debut ‘Kuki’ album, though he went on to his second, ‘Sibeza’.

K8 Kavuyo  no longer frequents studio either. With his popular jargon ‘Hip Hop Nyayo’, the 20 year old has been one of the best rappers and good performers of the year 2009.

He released his debut album ‘Isaha Ya Munani’ in September but notably cut muscle in the aftermath.

Talk about The Ben. One can be right saying that the year 2009 has been his (Ben’s) year, the fact that his songs capture fame one after the other.

The ‘magical’ voiced singer has however been struggling in the last quarter of the year. And, a good observe can concur with me that it all started with his aborted album launch show, way back in September.

Gosple songstress Tonzi definitely has one of the best voices in the land. However, one wonders why has been silent, and why it came right after her album launch. Could it be the fate?
