2:34 am
you're speaking to a much for the audience to just, you know, you, your background. how do you introduce yourself to people who are discovering it in people who are discovering you right now in this conversation? i tell people that i'm a spoken with artist and i tend to talk about political and social. ready questions in my work, to me we are going into this conversation out. we have comments from young people in uganda. we have comments on twitter and comments right here in the chief college page, if you will, to, towards, to georgia power. you are very welcome to jump into the comments section and you can be part of our conversation. we are particularly talking about a new film called black yellow rabbit. to get to you in a moment, go questions about that. i get straight to the top of the key to john. i'm thinking about you growing up as a youngster. and i grew up as a,
2:35 am
a black break from the african diaspora, your son of the diaspora. some of the uganda in the asper more moments as a youngster. will you shoot me a way that you like the band? well, i was, um, i was raised in the jamaica community the only you got an family in on neighborhood . and um, the jamaicans had been there for some generations and they had different relationship. ready the country to what my parents side. so really and my friends and their families. i was already aware that, well, you've gone to an experience was different to one. most people in the country identified. right. i'm looking here at a picture of you as a youngster. this is about 10 years ago and use a building office. how did you how did you know
2:36 am
that they would be an audience? what you didn't didn't even match up. the well, the ideas came from rap music in the 1st place. we had the good fortune of being able to record our selves with home technology for the 1st time when i started out as a raffle. so that was my introduction into what i'm doing now. one of the things a piece of what you can come very well known for is a pull cost and a your cost has been hugely successful. you called awards for it. and there was a member where you won't be to celebrate on the anniversary of the cost. well, the pull cost at cheapest, and to do, let's have a listen. see that click when it comes to this beautiful. or is it any of a look for them at times? community skin and they came out with 27 years of experience. so no matter what
2:37 am
stories come up in the papers about history, happy going to stay dependent single moms. i remember every single 1st on the front wheel. so why is it that we as a community have no control over on our main story to there's a reference for the rep as of today are facing the same struggles in w way to the around the time i want to house schools. crime, unemployment is not we now provide dispute for a multi $1000000000.00 store, re send an industry. i know we have to show for as new versions of the same story. have you had georges pull costs as to it was listening to himself. he was smiling. why we use money? do you are listening to yourself? cars are really 1st of all very below the things i would say in my,
2:38 am
in the most thoughts. and really my hope. so my dreams. so the port costs as low as the a vehicle i use to communicate some of these ideas to as many people as possible this and this, well i know is as analogies as a create to that they are going to be milestone moments in your career. and then most would people discuss with you if you could name one or 2 way you saw that was, that was a milestone way more people knew about like local. that was a break for sure me. with some of those milestones. be for you george. well a few years ago i wrote a poem for the royal wedding between um making a mockery. ready and prentice, i read a lot of people turned on to me from the moment um, a few years before that, i opened the rugby world cup ends in 2015 with my own poem. people might know
2:39 am
me from that up in the face of a few global i've campaigns because i write poems and collaborations with brands. and um, you know, fortunately many of those problems get broad costs across the world. so there's been a few moments, i guess there's some comments here on youtube i, i really loved these issues like yours. you've got a big family. it finds out that we've got gabrielle. hi joel, shut out from dining m u k. born and raised in uganda. very proud of you. i want to play here eclipse from black kilo right before we do that. explain what these new short film is about and the significance of the day. okay, well black killer ripples released on the 14th of january 2021 just a month ago now. and that's the data i'd send. fuzzy is most of the day of the you
2:40 am
got them presidential elections this year. and both of these are the big moments that were on my mind for obvious reasons. and they just the moment gave me a time over selection. that co incidence allowed me to reflect on 10 years of doors, the power and also what the, the presidential race between the incumbent president was 70 and the opposition leader will be why? well, that taught me what that reinforced for me about politics and the role of art in creating change. what stand stands out to me and what stood out for me was how you talked about leadership in uganda in a very memorable way to listen. let's have a look at the effects and have you gotten in society whose reaction is angry and violent to cost? i'm being silent,
2:41 am
but then there's another suspect to see what does it take to govern effectively? one school for we say the rules, but no, you can't. and still i that give them what the country is going full before. travel persecution of bruce and more 70 came to power in the eighty's and as of 201880 percent of you kind as well. and if i, if i hear you, i mean right, you 5, they've never experienced another leader. and whoever that could be called back to the prove they've got the requisite experience to govern eva. in fact, the other thing was so many gave a speech and the way you addressed the country was particularly candid, possible to read the grandkids bear in mind, but the lines for the 6 he hasn't really had to in popular use of pop. i've gotten the machine will use and a tricks he's self made and he's well paid. so many jo kits that's a him and he makes these times come. the next election was 7076,
2:42 am
but there was something grand i'd like about, and that's why so many con, imagine that without, if he represents the familiar to georgia, i'm going to go straight to some questions as thoughts from youtube for you. this is timothy, as you can and the adage, black yellow, red seems not to resonate with a mass is given the current state in uganda. it is sickening having to wake up. the tool with ties in headlines was in on, across the gun to george. thoughts is i'm sick and it is disturbing across the desk for as well, which is why so the, through my platform um i can provide space for all who are interested in the future. if you're going to, to reflect them to take stock of both sides of the argument and what the opportunities for us, my little clack moving forward and look, i'm looking beyond politics. frankly. what was your
2:43 am
experience? and this is for new to begin shooting the visuals in uganda, song for shutting uganda. someone not explain the filming process. great question. so we actually did um film quite a lot and you found that was my 2nd time. so maybe you've gone to the 1st time was a few years before i created a music video with the director, isaac over and the produce a cameo to continue a very talented people that was great. but this time, this was with a direct quote, medi lobby which is the british nigerian he does like for the big. ready these videos, music videos, but he's also a friend of mine and a bias for us to have my interest in creating material. ready like this, that wasn't just a song, but it was also based on the coincidence. i said to him,
2:44 am
as soon as i wrote the pieces of black kilo read, they ended up in the film. i said to him, we're going to go out to you down the, we're just gonna do whatever we can when we get there. and that's what we did. fortunately, we were well taken care of in the community of come with uh, what we did most of the filmy shots such as x and, and the rest of the team. but yeah, people are very supportive, corporate, too excited. and it was a great experience there. couple of big issues that you pay comp on and you introducing in the before the sale of black yellow raft. i went to have a listen to siena. she's in, she's based in uganda and respond to her thoughts the the see also. yeah. i as the, you know, she, she does, she's never going to really change
2:45 am
most tim from this room from the, from this year. so the make so i recognize the, the link between the decisions and the habits and the track record of this regime. and. ready lack of progress in some areas of public concern, whether that's health care, infrastructure, etc. well, i also recognize that i really want to be respectful here because i'm not on the african continent, but i recognize some parsons, i read, i recognize consistencies with the gun them for the typical situation. and this, the situation across many countries in africa. so what i see these problems when i see latest staying and paul for longer than the people expected longer than they
2:46 am
said they would in the 1st days. but i see them changing the constitution to allow this to happen. when i see young people and becoming increasingly frustrated and even becoming divided because there are people that do support this regime when i see these concepts. why, why? um, why take from these plans? is that to africa needs to needs a way of rethinking change, re thinking social change, re thinking development. we as young africans who often find ourselves at odds with all the leaders and older regimes. who always talk to us about how things work before they. ringback impala and how they all maintain stability and the not in the economy to expand. we need to figure out how we're not gonna get logged into fruitless arguments with these regimes. and i think we do that already. we might
2:47 am
not realize we might not recognize it in the way that i'm describing, bought through uh through our film, to music, through our culture, which plugs us into audiences across the world and creates commercial opportunities as well as broad costing our experiences between the home, the mobile on, on the dash pro, through our culture, we have created the biggest opportunity for change that we can imagine. and if we really and vicious about the opportunity we can achieve a lot of what we hope part of the politics will take care of c o u, a cautiousness in your voice. and this is the cautiousness or of being in the, the ask for. and i can hear people say, well, you knowing in you get how, how would you even know and you had an early education, so it's okay. so you to speak about it. i don't, i, i, i know that the of those criticisms that come back to may be blank sheet. how
2:48 am
did you respond to that isn't i think it's important to respect these criticisms. because even though i might not want to hear them as related to them, and i think what the criticisms indicate is that it can't be up to one person, one of the, for us or one of the frustrating things about our let through a system and about politics in general is that it becomes so focused on personalities. so many of us load all the hopes inside them was $74.00. but we want to where in reality, there is a system. i play this when i talk about pounds across the continent. the systems that we just need to be scientific about, we need to be objective about the systems. so if i'm saying that i see similarities in the direction that you've gotten in politics with the, the way that i don't want to draw
2:49 am
a direct comparisons with any particular country. but if i'm saying i see some similarities well, well i have the opportunity to do is try and figure out where i sit in those problems. and from a task or perspective, the dissolution of the response that i will offer is that i am at least an audience at least, and enjoy a few kind of culture. at least a young person who participates in uganda from overseas. and in the you have an opportunity, i guess, well, i'm not the only one. there are many, many young uganda's and all you've done is across the diaspora who are passionate about the countries future. who wants to make the best contribution they can otherwise they will just not be engaging with the future africa. well, um commit one of the talents and their resources. so what have a country that they sense with that? so i, what i'm saying to anyone who feels that i alone can speak for the future if you're
2:50 am
going to, i'm saying the i'm here for you. so you, so talk to me, what can we work on? what can we develop? i'm the 1st, the 1st honest that i could think of is the sharing the broad costing the recording, the promotion of our culture. that's what we do in the us here and youtube pop by. and so i've says what influence has feel free wind a has on you, george, in the soon black kilo ridge you all pretty cool, lovely line. can you point out that popularity doesn't mean that you're good at company? yeah, popularity alone is not the same as being good, a governor and i have had to recognize that you know, we don't, we haven't necessarily had evidence but he hasn't had the opportunity to show where he could do as a head of state. however, in terms of how everyone has influenced me,
2:51 am
he is reminded me of the importance of speaking truth to power. but we, why has been someone who is stood by his police and he has stood by his criticisms, you know, many of them very valid criticisms of the way things are before. but the way that role, there was no one from an in college and a ration who we knew who we necessarily identified with know almost ready to in the way the way to stop. so that really pushed me to start thinking, i think my feelings about your kindness future, hopefully to motivate other people in the diaspora who my also wants to start developing the opinion. and the contribution to uganda. she finds, is a student case based in uganda. he has a question for you. how can we include everyone in this cause for social estimate
2:52 am
and then the estimates from a leadership standpoint? once we are the latest, we started this race and included everyone once we get to that point, how do we ensure that we do not confuse long term progress for no progress when we insure the change is progressive and that we keep an open mind and that we are willing to pass the bus and on to the next man. savannah, is this a great question? and in the question of so many things that we need to ask individuals, we need to continue to apply on energy to thinking about these programs. so one of the things that you've identified as the, you know, when we do see change and when times move on, how we're going to ensure that we have a system of understanding each other and share in panama and responsibility. and the answer is there is no single answer on an individual level. every uganda,
2:53 am
this is what i said a bit at the end of my film, black kilo read, you've got this future is not just in politics alone, isn't the destiny of every uganda. so as individuals, we need to 1st of all accept our social responsibility. okay. unfortunately, or fortunately, we don't have sexual powell. we don't have central authority as young your guns. there is no us across the dice pro. and for many people who do not identify with the current leadership, we do not relate to the current leadership. we don't have a single way of communicating. we don't have a single agenda of priorities that we're going to work through. however, we will have a shared passion for you, then as future. so what that means is that you as an individual shipment, you need to start thinking to yourself, what can i do for my country? where do my skills lie? where well,
2:54 am
opportunities do i have to connect with people overseas overseas you kind of lied george and everyone else that he represents. how can i offer my services, my skills, my know, my knowledge to these people. ready in a way that we can build anything, any opportunity, any commercial arrangement, any trade between us, that we can control. that's the big project for our generation to them i'm looking to do to, to is also committed to lots of thoughts and lots of sites. do you watch with them? do says that i love george. i flushing since school. i took some big decisions in my life. based on his id is one of the big powerful ideas that were next with, with black, yellow, red is the impact on the effectiveness of music as a source for change, a lot have a list and everybody, you know,
2:55 am
maybe not with politics, but music even most of any knows the power of music. busy busy busy busy busy busy come on the lease, agree we're making a sprinkler, it's given us so many ways of making a drink. we got, did you send it? and we will start producing it. just honestly, it's because it's going over the world. run us all over the world is the most common and very rich and that's giving us a lot of leverage of privilege, of having all of this comes from the streets here. we still can say about do isn't songs from the streets. we've got a famous spot is working with guns on the streets and food still runs the alternate funds in the streets. we want our music to be or save you from all it is self destructive behavior. but it's just a sound chart to us really happening to the issues that we're not really talking to in georgia and i read or chatting about this i,
2:56 am
it was really of us. he wanted to be able to help is like, how do i help people and what are the ways that he is doing this with he's up with he's work is he's taking a ph. d. and this only give him a ph. d. this toby at the subject, right? he's, he's like a base. he's going to help you guidance. this is going to help the african diaspora . george, can you, can you make the connections between what your things, your ph, d and how you feel you can help be asking to ask for and young people around the world who are struggling with how can i help their own country just trying to thank you for asking about this for me. well, ultimately, what i'm trying to understand with my research is how young black people for 100 years, from all corners of the world to come up with their own ways of making music. but i've gone on to be really commercially successful without changing
2:57 am
the prospects of the communities that they come from. i don't see how it is possible. i don't see how we can have, you know, young black people and not just you've done that as black people for as long as we've had access to recording equipment. that's been jazz. there's been rock'n'roll . desmond, barnes, b, there's been reggae. that's been hip hop desmond funk. so disco, grime, african music now we have afro beats now docile, reggae. all of these things came from young, black people in very similar situations to what i grew up in. and so what many young uganda is, are currently growing. ok, so real innovation came from the music and real change came from the music and real money was made from that music. now, uganda is one of those countries that has
2:58 am
a music scene that is more prominent than other countries with a big a population on the clinton. right? so there's a legal issue and it's either just, it's been a pleasure talking to you and showing you without the chief audience and out it's around the available multiple platforms. one more thing i have to have looked at my laptop, everybody. black, yellow rage is currently available for you to watch on youtube. you can also, as well as george depended on twitter. and of course have you had to just pull cost . if you haven't, you can do it where you find. oh good. gosh george. the point, thanks for joining us. the
