Offers from Haze
Music, Not Lifestyle or Fashion
Music, not lifestyle or fashion — the listing offers both and the page is neither. I make music. Afrobeats, melodies, lyrics, from Kampala, in English, to 1,810 people on TikTok. Clothes appear in videos the way clothes appear on anybody, but styling is not what I do and a fashion brand booking this would get a musician wearing something. What is worth booking is the other thing. A brand that needs original audio, a track behind a campaign, or a musician's presence in a video has very few options on this platform and I am one of them. That is a narrower offer and a rarer one. Send the brief, say whether you need original music or an appearance, and tell me if the audio has to be cleared for commercial use, because that changes what I can hand over.
Storytelling Means Lyrics Here
Storytelling means lyrics here, which is not what a brand usually means by it. The bio says lyrical storytelling and that is accurate — it describes songwriting. A brand booking storytelling from Uganda is probably expecting a narrated video about a place or a community, and that is not what this page does. What it does is music: writing, recording, performing, from Kampala to a young pan-African audience on TikTok, 1,810 following. If your campaign needs a track, a hook, or somebody who can put words to a rhythm, that is a real and fairly rare booking. If it needs a documentary voice, look elsewhere and I will say so rather than take the work. Send the brief and whether you need the audio cleared.
A Musician on Camera
A musician on camera is a different asset from a creator on camera. As UGC you get files rather than a post. What is in them is somebody who performs for a living: comfortable in front of a lens, able to do a line twelve times without it dying, and able to put the delivery where you want it. That is a performing skill rather than an influencing one. If you also need original audio under the footage, I can write that and it comes from the same booking. 1,810 people follow my TikTok from Kampala, which does not matter here. Send the brief and how long it should run.
Nothing to Demonstrate but Music
Nothing to demonstrate but music, which rules this listing out as written. A product tutorial needs somebody who uses the product. I write and perform songs. Put a device or a cosmetic in front of me and the video would be a musician reading instructions, which helps nobody and would embarrass both of us. What could honestly be called a tutorial here is musical: how a hook gets built, what makes a line stick, how a track is put together. For a music brand, an instrument, an app or anything sold to people who make things, that is a real video. For anything else it is not, and I would rather say so than take the booking. 1,810 people follow my TikTok from Kampala.
Between Songs, on a Live
Between songs, on a live, which is when a mention has somewhere to sit. A TikTok live on a music page is people requesting tracks and waiting for one. A brand named in the gap between two songs gets heard; a brand named during a song does not happen and a brand given a segment empties the room. So I keep the mention short and put it in the space that already exists. 1,810 people follow my TikTok from Kampala, in English, and the live turnout is a fraction of that. Send the name, one line, and something a young audience would plausibly want.
Answering a Track
Answering a track is what a stitch means on a music page. Somebody posts a beat, a challenge, a line that is going around — and I reply by singing over it, finishing it, or doing it properly. That travels because people compare the two versions, which is the whole mechanism of a stitch. It needs something to answer though: if nothing about your brand or your track is circulating, an original video is the better booking and I would say so. 1,810 people follow my TikTok from Kampala. Send the link.
Given Away Between Tracks
Given away between tracks, which is where anything on this page gets noticed. A giveaway announced as its own video on a music page performs badly — people came for songs. So I put the announcement inside something musical and say the rules out loud at the end. The prize should be something a young Ugandan following music would actually want: headphones, a speaker, a ticket, kit. A voucher for something unrelated gets ignored. 1,810 people follow my TikTok from Kampala, in English. Send the prize, where it can ship and the closing date.
