Today I tried to eat this song ‘BALIWA’ and it was sweet!

Little do people understand that you can eat music, feed on music. Music feeds the soul for eternity.

Baliwa is part of the music genera that thrusts your soul to infinity. The song Baliwa took me to space. To and from, upwards and backward. Jose, you’re becoming a great musician after Oliver “Tuku” Mtukudzi. If I am not mistaken.

Apart from the hoarse sweet voice the Baliwa song is indeed encouraging and giving hope even to the person that understands no Luganda.

The lyrics are indeed empowering and I would say Jose chameleon. This! Your Music is Disruptive.  This is Immersive music.

As a researcher, I can never fail to highlight the dangers of such music.

With such inspirational lyrics, this music can awaken people’s emotions to strike against their leaders.

Because you’re singing to the soul, I caution you not to make a video of this song, and if you do it must feel infinite also.

Baliwa Lyrics

njabala njabala nyabula (njabala)
chameleone baur Sabula (njabala)
yes we come from so far away (njabala)
oh gosh…. (njabala)
they don’t know about the foundation (eh di foundation)
tebaliwo mu intimidation (intimidation)

bakusanze okoledde eh eh
bakusanze oteredde eh eh
bakusanze onyiridde eh eh
baliwa nga ettubidde? eh eh

bakusanze okoledde eh eh
bakusanze oteredde eh eh
bakusanze onyiridde eh eh
baliwa nga ettubidde? eh eh
