Big Tril Lands Satisfashion UG’s October 2019 Digital Cover
Satisfashion UG has today released its digital cover for October 2019 starring rapper Big Tril. Famed for being one of the fastest Ugandan rappers, Big Tril is one of the creative forces taking the hip hop genre from the back seat to the mainstream.
For the story, the rapper was photographed by Gerald Ochieng, an emerging photographer we recently stumbled upon on Instagram. He was styled by Abryanz Collection.
The accompanying interview was done by George Wabweyo, a seasoned arts journalist and rapper.
Here are a few excerpts from his chat with Satisfashion UG
On people thinking he’s so full of himself
Nobody should tell me what to do. If I have aspirations and dreams, don’t tell me how to dream. If I wanna win a Grammy for my country, that is my dream. Anyone who is saying what not…I don’t care. Those are their insecurities. I said what I said and I intend to do what I said. I am a man of my word.
On his style choices
To each their own. I love skinny jeans, I wear skinny jeans. But not everyone can wear skinny jeans. See, people who wear skinny jeans are usually comfortable in their skin.
On the creative direction he took for his ‘Parte after Parte’ music video
Everybody thought I’d go for a normal video. But see, when I released the audio of the song, the DJs played it so much, the video was my only way of giving back to them. It’s basically an exhibit of their work, like on a typical night out in Kampala.
