The document records the resolutions from a Ugandan multi-stakeholder dialogue convened to address public outrage over vulgar content in music produced by Gravity Omutujju and Lil Pazo. The dialogue, attended by representatives from various government agencies and cultural organizations, decried the artists’ music as inappropriate and degrading to Ugandan culture. Key resolutions included blacklisting the artists from performances and broadcasts, launching investigations potentially leading to legal prosecution under various Ugandan laws, and implementing measures to regulate media content, artist attire, and parental guidance. The overarching purpose is to curb the spread of obscene content and promote responsible artistic expression in Uganda.
