As a music producer, he has done several all-star songs but his voice is never heard in his songs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSometimes, people in Rwanda confuse producer, manager and engineer in the music industry. The reason you see my songs featuring several artistes is that I initiate the songs from scratch, the idea of the song, the production, and the genre. Then I think of the artistes that I think might fit well in the song and they come and record. By then, the song is mine because I come up with the concept.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He told The New Times that he is working on his first album that he named \u2018Five by Five Experience\u2019, which is a depiction of the 10 years he has been in music production.<\/p>\n<p>Zizou recently received an award from Mothers of Hope, which is a project of the American Institute of Arts, ION Multimedia, UNESCO Rwanda, as the \u2018Decade Promoter and Producer.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>According to Zizou, \u201cit is always such a pleasure when your artworks and contributions are recognised. This shows that some people appreciate the body of work we put in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked if he will include all his songs since 2010 he said, \u201cThe songs I first did were old school. I will only add them in a documentary that I am doing which will highlight what I have done. I made some other songs and so far five of them are already out.\u201d He added that the 12 remaining songs are in their final touches and will be out eventually.<\/p>\n<p>His new album consists of 17 songs and so far \u2018Wimfatanya n\u2019isi\u2019, \u2018Karibu Nyumbani\u2019, \u2018Jya Uba Romantic\u2019, \u2018Ihogoza and \u2018Ubanza Nkuze\u2019 all are out. \u2018LALE\u2019 will also soon be released.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/rwanda\">Rwanda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Rwanda.
