"Ama Mu Drile" by STICKA Lyrics
With his critically aggressive rap delivery, Abasi Goudstikker also known by the stage name StiCka (formerly MC Stickie Wickie) is a Ugandan-born Reggae and Dancehall singer who started singing at the tender age of seven. StiCka, a Muslim is well known for his mastery of freestyle flows. In this song on a freestyle beat like "Speedin'" by RICK ROSS ft. R. KELLY, he sings in English and Lugbara about moving forward [Mu Drile] with whatever work we [Ama] do despite what people say; it is something like a Hustler's Anthem: "Even if the hustle is exactly like when potatoes choke people, we just drink cold water and never stop!" You can find more of his songs at Audiomack, ReverbNation or SoundCloud!
[INTRO]
No matter what you do (Ama mu drile),
No matter what you say (Ama mu drile),

And I know am gonna make it some day!

[VERSE TWO]
(Let's go!)
Never thought in my life I would end up being a hustler
Should have been rapping, me am always gonna be a struggler.
The life that I have, the life that I spend
You don't mean ish yourself, but chance make me go astray
I've been ride or die since just to get my grab.
Proving to everybody: what am doing is really rap.
Neither fine is the words that can never throw me down.
I'm heartfully strong, mama man am throwing hands around.
If you really understand the pain I've been through,
Then there's nothing you can fabricate or really do.
Coz am stronger and harder than what I really was.
And that means ama be the real winner of course.
Do what you do coz aint nobody do what you do.
Never give up anything that you always wanna do,
That is why am sticking to it.
Do what you're supposed to do,
And in the end, it's gonna be a story for me and you!

[CHORUS]
Ama mu drile, (Eh, eh) acani go vile ku, le ku

Lugbara Translate

Mi Iri VJ Ke (You Listen to VJ Ke)!
Ama edo edo - Tutandika butandisi (We are just getting started)! People who cannot comfortably read (subtitled) Captions nor understand spoken English need not worry because Movies can be translated into local Ugandan Languages from any Genre. In Buganda, one Man that stands out is VJ Jingo from Kajjansi (Entebbe Road) whose exciting allegorical Narrations of foreign Language (especially English) Films enjoyed in several Bibanda (Video Shacks) blazed the Trail for the exclusively-Luganda TV Stations Bukedde 1 and 2 with similar Movie Programming, the uniquely wayward Football Commentary on Radio plus many other VJs both Baganda and other Tribes like Banyankole.

Within Arua, the First Word for Word Lugbara-translated Film I watched was the famous "JESUS! (film)" on BTN Television during a certain Christmas Season. However, I first heard a Lugbara Voiceover Narration of a different Film while passing by a wooden Video Shack on Airfield Road in the late 2000s, guess many VJs tried but it seemed like a rare Phenomenon because Videos were usually shown without any Lugbara Input in viewing Halls I had checked out near Arua Town, Adumi Road, at Coast (Ociba), Osu, Mvara, etc since the Turn of the Millenium. Nevertheless, veejaying of Blockbusters in Lugbara is picking up Pace; I'd love to watch "Deadpool" in Lugbara some Day, too bad it is very vulgar but portrays what the Devil does to Humans! One of those steady Pacesetters calls himself VJ Ke. Based in Olevu (Ajia) but also very mobile countrywide, VJ Ke (Arua Videos) uses less-complicated Words in his Translations to break down Plots. Born on Sunday 6th January 1991, Kennedy Yikii shortened his first Name to two Letters as his Brand. He studied at Jinja Progressive Academy (JIPRA) between 2003-8. If you are looking for him, you can find him on WhatsApp through 0772-818085, 0752-940045 or 0755-359770! The first Production I watched from him was "Helen of Troy" in May 2016 and the Video Librarian from whom I got my Copy said, "Many People liked it." I liked the smooth, flawless Translation too; I was able to comprehend the clear Lugbara Vocabulary. Wonderfully in sync, the matching Action also compelled me to follow till the CD stopped, wanting more Lugbarati. Awa'difo!

"Lugbara Tisi" by HENRY & DAPHNE M. Lyrics
This Gospel song which means "Using Lugbara Language" is taken from New Wine Music 2014, sounds hymnal and very interesting especially when it talks about JESUS being aware of Lugbara Heritage; it also contains Swahili and some dialectical Lugbara words...

You know wha'?
O my GAD, and that's how eventually my friend Lazarus's story ended,
Mysteriously, coz he didn't listen, took advice for granted.
Most of the times he had it unprotected.
You know wha' my brother,
Protection is better than cure!
Remember to always stay safe, and that's the way to go!

In the Benchmark Films video of this ballad, Freeboy clad in yellow shorts, grey T-shirt, dark shades plus black sneakers walks from the left of the screen to sit on a stool next to a standup microphone and plays his black guitar while singing verses in fresh-sounding English, but chorus in Lugbara.

Baby please don't let this love fade away!
How many times do I have to tell U: "I've gat U"?

But baby am right here trying to make things right, I.
It's been two years having sleepless nights.
All I want is U here by my side, I.
I promise U there'll be no fuss and fight!
I'll be the man to give U all the good things in life, I.
Because I can't get over U, U know it better,
That I can't get over U, yey!

[CHORUS]

Wo, wo, wo, alemi!
