Jamal’s walk to the musical scene and how he kicked books aside

 Who  is  Jamal Wasswa?

Jamal Wasswa

Jamal  Wasswa studied from  Kisugu primary  school for primary level and then joined  Kakungulu secondary school  for ordinary level  and Katale Secondary for advanced level.

But  after  getting thru all  the elementary education  system, he tried  joining  Makerere  Universityand  he pulled  out  of class  after  two semesters.

It  was unfortunate that  at  that material  time,  he  couldn’t  juggle  both books  and music. He  was forced   to  abandon  books  for karaoke  because he  needed  money  for  survival   as a man.

“In 2008,  I started  serious  composing  my music  and  released  my  first  music single  debut “oba wuwo”.

And   then  later  in  2009, I  released another  single, “Abakyaala  Bazira”  which sold me like a hot  cake
and made me forget  all  about school and  campus”, Jamal says
