Apass Beats the Midnight Drum ‘Loud and Proud’ at Serena

Last night, Apass reminded everyone why he is the king of the Midnight Drum. His maiden concert at the Kampala Serena Hotel, was nothing short of spectacular. 

The star left no doubt about his talent as a performer and artist, starting from the moment he made his grand entrance to when he drew the curtains on a beautiful evening.

The room erupted in excitement at the opening to the beat of Midnight Drum. It was a breathtaking stage and an even better view as Apass commanded the crowd with his vocals.

For over two hours, the singer performed his top hits from an impressive catalog.

His collaboration with Ykee Benda on Turn Up The Vibe sealed the night. As the final song, it brought everyone to their feet, with the entire room singing and dancing along.

During his performance, Apass couldn’t hold in the love and pride in his heart and thanked his fans saying, “Thank you for showing up and showing me love. It means a lot to me. I love you all!”

His performance was a visual treat, too, as he changed outfits five times, each reflecting a fusion of Asian-inspired, modern, and runway fashion. Every costume was bold, stylish, and uniquely Apass.

A highlight of the evening was when Apass invited Lilian Mbabazi to join him on stage for their emotional duet, Memories. It was a magical moment that left the audience inpresssed.

The crowd erupted with excitement as Apass hit the stage, delivering electrifying performances of “Wuuyo,” “Chupa Ku Chupa,” “Gamululu,” “Dididada,” “Give Me a Kiss,” and “Tulo.”

Amid the glitz and glamour of the night, one couldn’t miss the presence of I&M Bank sponsors of the show. 

Raymond Kakuru, the bank’s Brand and Events Officer, emphasized how music, like banking, connects people in meaningful ways. 

“Tonight was about celebrating the music that connects us while also supporting a talent like Apass, who brings us all together, he has outdone himself and we are honored to be a part of his journey!”

Notable celebrities and socialites, including Bobi Wine, Anne Kansiime, Levixone, and Don MC Kapata graced the concert.

A standout moment of the show was the heartfelt tribute to Uganda’s music legend, Mozey Radio. DJ Roja, along with the show’s hosts, took the audience on a musical journey through some of Radio’s biggest hits, sparking an unforgettable wave of energy as the crowd sang along and danced to every beat.

The event also featured other incredible acts like Warafiki, a rising girl group whose performance was powerful. Valentino’s angelic dance storytelling on stage added another layer of beauty to the night.
