No surprise most of his songs advocate for women’s rights.
Badru Kagisha aka Mr. Kiiki likes it most when they call him inshuti y’abagore (Ladies’ friend).
"I realized that women are not given the attention they deserve, so I stood out to fight for them and be their voice when they can not be heard," said Mr Kiiki said while explaining why he composed the title truck of his debut album Ibuguma, literally meaning an old cow.
Mr. Kiiki, 29 explains that just like an old cow, old women have completely lost value before men.
According to him, young girls instead are being chased by old men and this is completely unacceptable and it hence inspired him to sing in support of women.
"I understand what women like. I chose to use a cow in my song because it is respected and loved by most people," said the enthusiastic singer, businessman and mechanic.
Born in neighboring Uganda, Mr. Kiiki was just like many other Rwandans, returned from exile in 1998.
Upon returning home, it took him a very short time to manifest the spirit of nationalism.
Soon he composed a song for the people of Rwanda, Ndabakunda (I love you)
I came to learn that this song attracted the attention of the many as it comforts and consoles the Genocide survivors.
"We should all be one because with love, peace must prevail," he concluded
