Ray G Says He Will Only Go International With a Sound That Represents Uganda
In recent years, Ugandan musicians have faced growing pressure to prove they can compete on the global stage.
As the debate over taking Ugandan music international continues, Ray G says he has no intention of chasing global recognition with a sound that does not reflect who he is.
Speaking on NBS After 5, the singer revealed that expanding beyond Uganda remains one of his ambitions, but only if he can do it with music that stays true to his roots.
I do not want to go empty-handed. I want to go with something that represents us.
Ray G said he and his team are deliberately working on a sound that can stand out internationally instead of blending in with existing trends.
He also dismissed the idea of pursuing international success simply for money or viral attention, insisting that originality and authenticity matter more in the long run.
