Ichuli to Rema: Rolling your eyes isn’t enough, you’ve to give us a concert

Social commentator Olaxes Ismail, better known as Jaja Kalevu Ichuli, believes it's high time Rema Namakula and Hellen Lukoma gave their fans concerts.

Ichuli shared his sentiments following Spice Diana's highly-attended concert held at Lugogo Cricket Oval.

"Mrs. Hamza, you have to do something. Rolling eyes is no longer enough. Hellen Lukoma, you have to do something, boasting around doesn't work... Mrs. Hamza, with the kind of wealth you have, don't organise a show that's not as big as [Spice Diana's]... You think we can accept that?... Try and organise a show that's not equivalent of Spice's, we may even murder you from the internet! Your manager needs to step up the game," Ichuli said.

Rema Namakula last held a concert on February 14, 2020, at Hotel Africana’s Nile Hall in Kampala.

Before that, Siri Muyembe singer had another one on March 10, 2018, at Kampala Serena Hotel.

When musicians were allowed to organise concerts again following two years in a Covid-induced lockdown, most big names, including Juliana Kanyomozi, who hadn't held a show in eight years, started booking days. But Namakula hasn't said anything about a concert though she has been performing at some of the concerts that have been recently organised.

All her latest songs between her last concert and today have also been well-received, so to many, it looks like there is no excuse.

On her part, Lukoma said she is yet to organise a concert because she feels she hasn’t released enough jams and she wants her show to be massive.
