Rwandan hip-hop artist Uwimana Francis, popularly known as Fireman, is gearing up for a highly anticipated concert that promises to bring him closer to his music fans. The event will celebrate his latest Extended Play (EP), titled 'Bucyanayandi', which features three compelling tracks: “Igeno,” “Bucyana ayandi,” and “Ibihuha.”

The concert is scheduled for November 1, 2024, and will showcase Fireman alongside fellow Tuff Gang artists, marking his return to the stage after a long hiatus from major performances.

After a significant break from live events, Fireman is eager to share his new music with fans. “This EP has elevated my music to new heights,” he remarked, noting that he has begun distributing his music on various online platforms, a shift from his previous methods. This strategic move is set to enhance his reach and connect with a broader audience in the digital age.

In his latest journey, Fireman has launched a new YouTube channel and other music accounts under the name “Fireman Vayo.” He shared that past attempts to establish a YouTube presence were met with challenges, as his channels often vanished shortly after creation. 

“I want to create a lasting platform for my work and engage with my audience,” he explained, emphasizing the importance of staying connected with fans.

Fireman’s EP ‘Bucyanayandi’ carries a powerful message of hope and resilience. “These songs are meant to inspire people and remind them that tomorrow will come,” he said. His lyrics aim to uplift listeners, encouraging them not to lose heart in difficult times. “This is the message I try to convey in every song, which is why I chose to name the EP 'Bucyanayandi',” he added.

He called on his fans and supporters of Tuff Gang to join him on this new chapter of his career. “I am committed to bringing joy to my fans, and I hope they will support me as I share my music,” Fireman expressed. He intends to use his new platform not only to showcase his music but also to keep fans updated on his journey and other relevant news.

Fireman’s musical roots trace back to his early days in RnB before he transitioned to hip-hop in 2004, where he initially collaborated with artists like Bulldogg and Jay C in the group Magic Boyz. 

Despite the struggles of the Rwandan music scene at the time, Fireman persevered, eventually becoming a key figure in the Tuff Gang collective. His journey reflects the evolution of Rwandan hip-hop, and with ‘Bucyanayandi’, he aims to inspire a new generation of fans and artists alike.
