In this deeply personal episode, I engage in a candid conversation with Denis Karenzi, better known by his stage name, Sema Sole. We delve into his use of music as a therapeutic outlet to navigate the complexities of life. Our discussion spans the origins of his artistry, his decision to use Kinyarwanda as his primary language for artistic expression, and his passion for poetry.
We also explore Sema Sole's battle with substance abuse, detailing his journey through rehab and its subsequent impact on both his personal life and artistic career. The episode emphasizes the critical importance of mental health and advocates for open dialogues, particularly in the context of substance abuse.
To conclude, Sema Sole unveils his future aspirations, including an eagerly awaited album that promises to offer a raw, unfiltered look into his life experiences.
