Musical
Career
2011
to 2013
Osings used to perform in numerous
bars and clubs around Kampala hoping to be spotted by Talent scouts but this
did not work because he had no recorded music at the time. They were moments
when he felt low and did not want anything to do with music, during such times
he was comforted and encouraged by his older and more experienced friends at
that time , Shanks Monitor and Shanks
Vivi Dee. Among the artists and acts he admired secretly were Atlas da
African , Maurice Kirya and Cindy.
2013
to 2015
Osings later on met Kaz Kasozi a Jazz and Classic
music artist who was working at the Uganda Cultural Centre (National Theartre)
and Bayimba Uganda. Kaz Kasozi invited Osings for music classes were he learned
how to write professional songs and scripts, his other teacher at the same
project was a guest from Switzerland named Maloui Klassien. Osings recalls
Maloui Klassien telling him that if he put effort in his art it could take him
to places and from that day forward he has never looked back. He strongly
believes that on the road to stardom it’s either you go hard or you go home.
Basing on this slogan, it is clearly evident that Osings will never take the
road back to his home and is striving for excellence in his musical career day
by day.
