Apakuki Nalawa is no stranger to the music scene however in his latest song-release ‘Let Go’ he reveals a side of himself not known to many.

He said this new song, addresses issues of  anxiety and depression.

“I came up with the track Pre-COVID and after everything that’s happened this was the perfect time to release the song.”

“I have struggled with depression and anxiety for a number of years, so from a very young-age I have struggled a lot.”

Mr Nalawa said most would see him as a young musician who has achieved quite a successful career but many do not know of the battles he was facing.

“There were so many personal hurdles I had to overcome to get here.

“I decided to share my story because I truly believe that depression is something that is very real and most people hide it with the hope that it would go away.”

Mr Nalawa hope that with this new song would reach out to anyone fighting depression and anxiety.

“The most important step to take is to reach out to someone and just let go.”
