Having dropped hints back then in July, which left many fans in speculation of a new collaboration between the former Blu*3 songstress and now Sundowners Band lead singer; Lilian Mbabazi and Alexander Bagonza alias A Pass combined effort yet again and dropped their second team up, by the title ‘Ebilowozo’.
Rumors of a possible joint project were further fueled when Lilian made a surprise appearance on Club Pilsener & Fenon Events organized Club Beatz At Home online concert; performed their zouk centric song ‘Memories’.
A Pass and Lilian Mbabazi are two artistes who share massive respect for each other regardless of the experience gap between them.
‘Ebilowozo’ serves as Lilian Mbabazi’s second single for this year, following her May release ‘This Love’; a project that was rolled out in partnership with US Mission Uganda, where Lilian lent her voice to raise more awareness and join the fight against Gender Based Violence. Mbabazi also featured on Slick Stuart & DJ Roja’s ‘Very Wellooo’ August album, on track 05; ‘Tolina Kyongamba’.
A Pass too has had a couple of top tracks in a year which have been favorites for most in the local music industry. Starting off with January double release ‘Nkwagala’, and ‘Pumpin Op’, award winning appearance on Ykee Benda’s ‘Turn Up The Vibe’, ‘Different League’, Mu Curfew‘, ‘Addicted’, ‘What People Do‘, ‘Tuli Mumotoka‘, among others.
“Ebilowozo biri wuwo, awo w’ebiri tusulawo, kku lulwo omubiri nguyiwawo, kato ngamba ekidaako..”, A Pass opens the single, and Lilian Mbabazi later reassures him in her verses that she needs him, and that she can not switch up on him, and that she always anticipates his returning home. Beautiful song, if you asked me.
Commenting on their new project, A Pass wrote:
Tomorrow is my birthday so I felt like making new memories with you alongside my lovely friend @lilianmbabazi #Ebilowozo
