When Kenneth Mugabi first burst onto the scene, listeners were convinced he’d been sipping vintage wine since birth. The secret? Not a time‑traveling studio, but a relentless caffeine habit and a playlist of jazz standards that would make a grandpa blush. In an exclusive (and slightly caffeinated) interview, Mugabi reveals that his early music sounded so mature because he was literally writing lyrics at 3 a.m. after three espresso shots, while his cat judged every chord. The result? Songs that sounded like they were composed by a seasoned sage, not a twenty‑something fresh out of university. So next time you hear a Mugabi track that feels like it belongs in a smoky jazz lounge, just remember: it’s the beans, not the genes.
