Jose Chameleon's Dream Comes to Reality As He Launches the Chameleon Fm in Bujjumbura, Burundi.
For years, the talk of Jose Chameleone launching his own radio station felt like an urban legend a grand ambition that sat on the shelf while the music took center stage. That chapter of "what if" is officially closed.
The Ugandan icon has finally flipped the switch, but with a twist that caught many off guard: the headquarters isn't in Kampala, but in Bujumbura, Burundi.
This isn't just a vanity project; it’s the result of a high-stakes power move. Following a 2025 sit-down with Burundi’s President Évariste Ndayishimiye, Chameleone has turned a diplomatic handshake into a media reality.
- Chameleone pledged to invest in Burundi’s creative economy as a bridge between the two nations.
- While fans in Uganda have waited decades for a "Leone FM," the singer saw a strategic opening in the Burundian market where his "Valu Valu" legacy still reigns supreme.
By launching Chameleone FM, the singer joins the elite ranks of African artists pivoting from the microphone to the boardroom. This move signals a new era for Chameleone not just as a performer, but as a regional media mogul. "Some dreams don't die; they just wait for the right territory to breathe."
The station is already generating massive buzz across social media, proving that Chameleone’s influence is borderless. It’s a testament to persistence, showing that even a "long-delayed" dream can become a reality with the right timing and a bit of cross-border synergy.
