Greater Acholi Musicians Association (GAMA) president Laxzy Mover has warned artists against producing vulgar music, calling for an immediate ban on Big Fati’s song “Tuni”.
Laxzy’s warning follows the release of
“Tuni” by upcoming artist Big Fati Music commonly known as Aleng Fatuma, which is circulating on social media.
However, the song has sparked mixed reactions on TikTok, with many users blaming the producer who mixed the nasty lyrics.
According to Laxzy, the song not only brings shame to motherhood but also degrades the culture of Acholi-speaking people.
“Music is meant to teach, educate, entertain, and preserve knowledge for future generations, but ‘Tuni’ falls far short of these values,” he said.
He condemned vulgar music “in the strongest terms possible,” saying it fails to uplift people and instead “degrades our pride, culture, and misleads both young and old.”
Laxzy called for the song’s immediate ban and removal from all media platforms, urging the public to “treat it with the contempt it deserves.”
“I call for the immediate ban and removal of this song ‘Tuni’ by Big Fati from every platform,” he said.
He warned that any radio station, media platform, or blog found promoting the song would face penalties, including a total ban or being shut down.
Laxzy also cautioned producers against using their “God-given talent to produce this kind of trash.”
He alleged that some people in the diaspora are funding such music due to personal grudges, warning them to stop “with immediate effect.”
“It has come to our knowledge that some of our brothers and sisters in the diaspora are facilitating the production of unethical music because of personal disputes,” he said. “You are contributing to the degradation of our industry and heritage, which we have worked hard to uplift. We will not accept this.”
Meanwhile, the increasing number of vulgar artists in Northern Uganda’s music industry is alarming. Many see vulgarity as their only way to earn a living.
