Eddy Kenzo is all smiles after being picked to appear in Chris Brown’s upcoming video 'Back to Love'.
Kenzo was sent an email by Nick Jackson from Riveting Entertainment, a Film and Video Production Company based in Los Angeles informing him that Chris would feature him for 3 seconds in the video. This was after he watched his video on YouTube.
Sharing the exciting news on Facebook, Kenzo revealed that when he started out, the media criticized him for incorporating dance in his music and now Kenzo Style has become one of Ugandan Music biggest exports.
“Okusinzira e'mbera mwenazalibwa n'emwenakulira it's very hard to believe naye mukama antuuziza nabarangira ate nga bebanonya I remember when started dance music media yanvumanyo mbu ndi dancer bra bra bra kumbe byebigenda okukyusa face ya music wensi yafe.

Work hard believe achieve. #Godfirst Chris Brown Kati bebatunonya mungu mugaga,” Read Kenzo’s post. (Translation: Basing on the situation I was born and raised, it's very hard to believe but God has made me share a seat with princes and they are the ones looking for me. I remember when I started dance music, media abused me saying I'm only a dancer bla bla bla when it was actually what was gonna change the face of music in our country. Our industry is known everywhere right now because of kenzo style #happymusic. All artists wana collaborate with us now. We receive a lot of emails from European artists, American, South America, Caribbean, French Africa, Anglophone Africa, Latin America, kwegamba everywhere appreciating our work. Indeed, who is Musuuza? Whose family was on the lowest level of poverty in the community of the poor. Oh My God! Forgive me for telling my story most of the time but I believe my story might help someone out there and it strengthens them or change their life. My people, with GOD everything is possible. Work hard believe achieve. #Godfirst. Now Chris Brown is looking for me, God is rich).
