User:Jenkins Mukasa

Jenkins Mukasa is a reggae artist from Uganda in Eastern Africa. In the early 90s, Jenkins together with other youthful artists kicked off a mission to revolutionalise Ugandan music. A mission that would later re-define the music industry to what it is today. They did this by fusing the popular western R&B and carribean reggae influences of the time with Ugandan local lyrics, giving birth to a style that would later be adopted by almost all young upcoming artists. i.e Ugandan Afro beat. Since his break off from the 90s hit group 'Da Hommies' to persue a solo carrier, Jenkins' discography is one to reckon with. Indeed he is one of the most respected artists in the region. He is one of the founder members of 'Roots Rokaz', Uganda's biggest and most energetic reggae band.
