Kampala, Uganda | By Michael Wandati | Renowned Ugandan singer Iryn Namubiru is embarking on a new journey as a social media influencer.
The sassy but shy songstress, has previously expressed reservations about the digital realm, now feels prepared to dive into this contemporary industry.
Namubiru, having “overcome shyness,” is ready to explore the opportunities that social media influencing presents.
“I am going to start now,” said Namubiru while appearing on a local radio show on Friday morning.
Singer Iryn Namubiru is making her debut in the social media influencing scene, a move encouraged by popular radio hosts Lucky Mbabazi and Gaetano Kagwa. The two media personalities urged Namubiru to expand her well-established music brand into the digital sphere.
Mbabazi, a prominent social media figure in Uganda, advised the “Nkuweki” singer on the lucrative potential of this emerging business.
With their encouragement, Namubiru is poised to explore new opportunities and maximize her reach in the influencer landscape.
Mbabazi specifically encouraged Namubiru to begin by live-streaming everyday activities from her home in France, offering an authentic glimpse into her life and helping to build her online presence.
“You can stream cooking Ugandan foods, cleaning the house or taking to your kids,” Mbabazi encouraged Namubiru.
Namubiru has lived a relatively quiet life with her family in France.
She admits that she had previously resisted the urge to share her life online out of fear of appearing “like a villager.”
“I see people posting themselves when visiting nice places like hotels, but I never really considered this because to me it feels like village swag,” she said.
“It feels like everybody knows this place, so why should I post it?”
Gaetano and Lucky, however, shared ideas with Namubiru on how to overcome her shyness and succeed as a social media influencer.
“When building a brand on social media you can only share what you are comfortable with,” Lucky Mbabazi said.
“If you feel something is too embarrassing, do it indoors… it can be cleaning, interacting with children or even studio sessions. With time your confidence level will get better,” she advised.
