• Bruno K won a court case against Black Market Records over royalties and copyright disputes linked to a disputed five-year contract.
• The singer estimates unpaid dues at nearly UGX 200 million, saying the amount continues to grow with interest.
• Bruno K says time is on his side, expressing confidence that the record label will eventually pay every shilling owed.

Ugandan Singer Bruno K is standing his ground in his long-running battle with Black Market Records, making it clear that he won’t rest until every shilling owed to him is fully paid.

This label, which managed him for about a year, was rumoured to have locked him into a five-year deal. That claim later fueled a heated legal fight over royalties and copyright. In the end, the court ruled in Bruno K’s favour, ordering the company to compensate him.

Bruno K estimates the unpaid money to have grown to nearly 200 million, yet he feels he’s in no rush to collect. He reasons that time is on his side and that the longer the delay, the more the interest piles up.

“As long as the record label still operates in Uganda, it will eventually pay me my money. They can take all the time they want, that’ll enable me to get a substantial amount of funds.” Bruno K said confidently.
