Navio whose real names are Lubwama Daniel Kigozi came onto the music
scene in the year 2000 as part of the Hip-Hop group called "Klear
Kut." The group has six members called The Mith, Papito, Langman, JB,
Unique and ofcourse Navio. All of the members of the Hip-hop group are
currently working on solo projects.
Navio's debut album as a solo artiste titled "Half the Legend," was
released early June 2009 and has had a major impact on the Ugandan
Hip-Hop industry. The album comprises of hit singles like "Bugumu,
Otyo, Salooni, Bad man from Kamwochya" and so many more!
Welcome to Navio's world!!
Navio was born in Nairobi Kenya and studied in St. Andrew Turi until
he was 11 years old then he moved to South Africa to continue and
finish his studies.
He speaks with an articulate english accent and poses with swagger
that suggests he has been around the world and back!
"My background provided a good atmosphere for me to develop my rapping
skill. When i went to South Africa, I started playing for the North
West Province basketball team. Hip-Hop and Basketball go hand in hand
and at that point i knew rap was my calling," Navio says.
For years the Hip-Hop sector of the music industry was not getting
enough appreciation, but Navio's unique rapping skills and his
ambitious nature have propelled him high above his fellow rappers to
make him one of the most respected Hip-Hop acts in Uganda.
