The mith

Mayanja Thomas also known as THE MITH, is a Ugandan Hip-hop artist, Songwriter, Podcaster and Entrepreneur known for his powerful lyricism and always pushing his love for Uganda. THE MITH broke onto the scene with easily the greatest Ugandan Hip-hop group KLEAR KUT, and he's managed to carve out an equally impressive solo career. THE MITH is been considered as 1 of the most influential Hip-hop artists out of Uganda not only because of his music, but also through his I'M SO UG t-shirt line and his work with his THE SO UG PODCAST. With 3 critically acclaimed albums (The Week Of September, Destination Africa and The Ugandan) and 3 lyrically potent mixtapes under his belt (September Reign Vol I, The Feature Mixtape and Road2DestinationAfrica), there's clearly more on the way from Uganda's #1 lyricist.
