Ugandan singer and Fangone Forest boss Alien Skin, real name Patrick Mulwana, has dropped a shocking announcement about his potential retirement from the music industry. During his concert at Lugogo Cricket Oval, the controversial artist suggested that he would be stepping away from the microphone to focus on other business ventures.
The Retirement Announcement
Midway through his performance at Lugogo Cricket Oval, Alien Skin paused to address his fans, making a bold statement that he is officially exiting the Ugandan music industry as an artist.
“Officially, from today I will wave goodbye to the Ugandan music industry as an artist. However, I am going to remain as one of the legendaries.”
His words were met with immediate opposition from his fans, who were not ready to see him leave the industry. Many in attendance voiced their disappointment, chanting for him to continue making music.
The Concert’s Struggles
The decision to announce his retirement came after his concert faced low attendance, which some attribute to multiple competing events on the same night and the recent decline in his popularity. Many fans noted that Alien Skin’s rapid rise to fame was built on his unique raw style, but sustaining relevance in the ever-competitive Ugandan music industry has proven challenging.
Despite the disappointing turnout, Alien Skin remains confident in his legacy, stating that he has inspired many Ugandan youths to work hard and believe in themselves.
