Bosco Nshuti’s musical journey
Born into a Christian family of four children (two boys and two girls), Bosco Nshuti is the youngest. His passion for gospel music was greatly influenced by his parents, both of whom were church singers.

The song Ibyo Ntunze gained widespread popularity, opening doors for him to receive invitations to perform at various events. He was also a member of New Melody, where he received music training and ministry experience.
