Ugandan singer and storyteller Neshlyn returns to the spotlight with a soul-stirring new single titled “Bakundekele.”
The jam is a heartfelt ballad that radiates with vulnerability, passion, and an unmistakable message of unconditional love.
As her smooth yet powerful vocals glide over the track’s lush instrumentation, Neshlyn once again proves why she is one of East Africa’s most emotionally resonant voices.
Rooted in the soulful rhythms of her homeland, Bakundekele—which translates loosely to “Let Them Leave You For Me” in Luganda—is more than just a love song.
It is an ode to self-acceptance, to being loved fully and freely, just as one is.
“This song is deeply personal,” Neshlyn shared. “It’s about allowing yourself to be seen and embraced in your truest form. No masks. No pretenses.”
Neshlyn is no ordinary artist. Her voice, often described as effortlessly beautiful and emotionally gripping, transcends borders. With every note, she channels the raw essence of Ugandan soul—telling stories that echo from the hills of Kamuli to audiences across the globe.
Whether performing on local stages or international platforms, she captivates with a rare authenticity, weaving narratives of love, resilience, and identity.
Bakundekele is a continuation of that legacy—both a personal declaration and a universal message.
But Neshlyn’s brilliance isn’t confined to her music. Away from the microphone, she is a tireless advocate and philanthropist, deeply rooted in service to her community.
In her home district of Kamuli, she is affectionately known not only as an artist but also as a guardian angel to many children.
Through her foundation work, she has championed educational opportunities, distributed essential supplies, and amplified the voices of the most vulnerable.
Her passion for uplifting others recently earned her one of her proudest honors: the Black Excellence Award from the Governor of Massachusetts, USA—a testament to her unwavering commitment to the youth of Uganda.
With Bakundekele, Neshlyn not only offers a musical masterpiece but also a reminder of the healing power of love—both given and received. Her voice carries not just melodies, but missions. Her songs are more than sound; they’re statements of purpose.
As she continues to rise, inspiring hearts and transforming lives, one thing is certain: Neshlyn isn’t just singing her story—she’s singing ours.
