Pick of the Week - Eddy Kenzo (Uganda)

Out latest pick is from Ugandan musician Edrisah Kenzo Musuuza, better known to music lovers as Eddy Kenzo.

Dumelang. Our focus is typically on southern African countries. But we move north a bit, to Uganda, this time around.

This week's Pick of the Week is from Ugandan musician, Eddy Kenzo. Who's come a long way from a childhood spent living on the streets to being Uganda’s first-ever Grammy-nominated musician. More about Kenzo in this recent interview with CNN.

Kenzo will be doing a few dates here in these United States in May and June, so get out there and see him if you can.

I couldn't choose between two Kenzo songs for this pick. So we're going with "Mariaroza" this time around and will probably have a bonus pick coming up soon. Stay tuned.
