B2C, aptly named “Born to Concur.” Comprising three extraordinary musicians – Mr. Lee, Bobby Lash, and Delivad Julio – this dynamic trio has captivated audiences since their inception in 2016 under the mentorship of esteemed event organizer and music promoter Andy Events, also known as Andrew Mugerwa.
A Triumphant Trio
Each member of B2C brings a unique flavor to the group, contributing to their eclectic sound that spans genres. Bobby Lash, born Ssali Peterson, infuses Ragga and Reggae with his versatile skills, drawing inspiration from a diverse range of musical influences. Delivad Julio, born Kasagga Julius, boasts a remarkable vocal range spanning R&B, Zouk, Ragga, and Reggae, shaped by his early exposure to church music. Completing the trio is Mr. Lee, born Mugisha Richard, a dynamic artist whose prowess extends across R&B, Zouk, and Reggae, fueled by his roots in church music.
Chart-Topping Success
B2C stormed into the spotlight with their breakout single “Wansensera,” a chart-topping sensation that captured the hearts of fans across Uganda. Since then, their musical journey has been a symphony of success, marked by hit after hit. From “Munda Awo” to “Gwe Weka,” “Kiss You,” and “Obulungi Bunuma,” the trio has consistently delivered musical gems that resonate with audiences of all ages.
Collaborative Brilliance
In addition to their solo endeavors, B2C has collaborated with some of Uganda’s most prominent artists, further cementing their status as musical powerhouses. Their collaboration with Rema on “Gutujja” and David Lutalo on “Awo” showcased their versatility and ability to seamlessly blend with diverse musical styles. Their feature on Aroma’s chart-topping single “Yoola” solidified their position at the forefront of Uganda’s music scene.
Trials and Triumphs
Despite their meteoric rise, B2C faced challenges on their journey to success. Conflict with their former manager, Andy Events, led the group to rebrand as Kampala Boys in 2019. However, this setback only served to strengthen their resolve, reaffirming their commitment to conquer the music industry with their unparalleled talent and unwavering passion.
A Bright Future Ahead
As they continue to evolve and innovate, B2C – now Kampala Boys – remains a driving force in Uganda’s music scene. With their infectious beats, soulful melodies, and boundless creativity, they are poised to conquer hearts and charts alike, both locally and on the international stage. With each new release, B2C reaffirms their status as musical icons, leaving an indelible mark on Uganda’s cultural landscape.
