Since he first introduced his well-manicured sound through 2021’s Pleasure, MAUIMØON (Donald Ngoga Otim) has continued to harness his artistry and further sharpen his voice. A stash of five carefully crafted tunes, Pleasure contained a combo of romantic yearnings and ecstatic feelings of love, with MAUIMØON’s cosy, sweet-scented vocals propelling each song. These ingredients carry over into From Uganda With Love, with the singer and producer filling all corners of the beats with his soft, unhurried words. Romance is a dominant theme here, with the singer flattering, yearning and seducing the object of his affection. On “Sayin My Name”, the sonic polymath casually strides on a glossy blend of twinkling piano chords and muffled drums, whipping up a mood that harkens back to ’90s R&B. The mood is upped on the groovy “Cherry Sweet”, while the splash of drums on “Supahawt” inspires MAUIMØON to turn on his lover-boy charm, serenading his love interest with sweet lyricism.
