Moses Radio Weasel |
Goodlyfe Crew is a Ugandan music group with lead performers being singers Moses Radio (born Moses Nakintije Ssekibogo) and Weasel (born Douglas Mayanja). Moses Radio provides smooth RnB vocals while Weasel's contribution is a fusion of reggae, ragga and dancehall vibes. Because of their prominence, Moses Radio and Weasel have formed their own duo known as Radio and Weasel.
Radio and Weasel also formed The Goodlyfe Crew. The crew has seen many changes in its set-up but at various times included Chagga, Red Banton Buaman, Allan Kiwanuka, Jeff Kiwanuka, Gift of Kado, Diamond Oscar. Many of its members had their own solo projects and collaborations.
Moses Radio (birth name Moses Nakintije Ssekibogo) has had a prosperous musical career. He studied at Holy Cross Lake View Secondary School in Jinja, where he served as president of the school's Youth Alive Club. He composed musical projects for the club that succeeded in inter-school Youth Alive Club competitions. In 2002, Radio studied at Kiira College Butiki in Jinja where he had a two-year break in his musical career concentrating on his studies. He later joined Jose Chameleone's Leone Island Crew in 2004. While working as Chameleone's backing vocalist, Radio released solos on Leone Island Records. These include "Jennifer", "Dagala", "Wololo" and "Sweet Lady".Sweet Lady was well received, though Radio's public profile remained low.
Weasel (born Douglas Mayanja) started as an independent artist who released solo projects under the auspices of his elder brother's records, but it was his collaboration with Chameleone on "Bomboclat" that caught audience attention.
Radio and Weasel became backing vocalists for the greatly popular Ugandan musician Jose Chameleone, but later broke off from Chameleone's Leone Island Crew in 2008 to form the Goodlyfe Crew.
The duo Radio and Weasel songs have been successful on Ugandan radio. Starting with "Nakudata" in 2008, the duo released "Lwaki Onumya", "Zuena", "Nyambura" and "Bread and Butter". In mid-2008, the duo collaborated with artists such as Rachel Kay, Blu*3, OS, Allan Toniks, GNL and Zambia's General Ozzy. They performed live and collaborated with Ugandan artist Keko.
