Miss Jojo

"I found myself in a profession that I had always looked forward to. I am living my dream to become an international musician."

"My stay in Europe then, has largely influenced my career because it taught me how to be open to life and people in general.”"

"Its not that I’m scared of crowds but it’s something in me that I’ve done since childhood."

"I love positive criticism but I hate people who tell lies about me"

"Being a singer, involves marketing yourself, but being a woman, this is very tricky, I try to stick to our values and remain proud of myself as a Rwandan woman"

"Most of my fans are children under 15, I am a role model to them, I have to be careful about the things I do— I am young, I feel the vibes of modernity but I pay more attention to them (children) because I am an example and I am not only living my life but a life of a generation, I do not want to mislead people, so I try to keep myself clear,"

"If they can listen to our songs, that means they can listen to these messages of hope and change their lives,"

"“I want to be like Chaka Chaka, one day I want to be the ‘Queen of Africa, representing Rwanda to the world as I sing songs full of rich messages, no matter how long it will takes I will work towards that,""

"Music is a business, sometimes if the deal is not worth price, you have to pull out."

"I didn’t trust the whole process in the deal, that’s why I turned it down."

"“I still wonder why people do bad to each other. My prayer and wish is that Rwanda continues to grow and become the best mother land it can be""

"I feel happy that I can express my self and best of all I can pass on a message. I fear that God may ask me why I never used my talent like in the parable of the three servants in the bible,"

"My musical approach adapts the necessary ability needed to memorize what I hear and analyze various contexts that comprise the interpretive process. With all this in mind, nothing was ever going to stop me from singing."

"All the songs are my personal experiences and journey through life. I hope to touch everyone with this album and I pray the people find it worthwhile"

"Music is my passion, my dream. In fact, I am living my dream! I have been unable to stop it’,"

"Everyone was telling me not to do it. They said the society viewed girls who sung as loose and reckless…I had a story to tell, I loved music and I over came these challenges at the end of the day,"

"When I performed, Rwandans loved me, they kept shouting, ‘we want to see Miss Jojo, we want to see Miss Jojo and this was my beginning which was very successful and hopeful."

""...and if Rwandans, can feel me like this, I knew that there was nothing else I could do but to sing words that could change their lives.”"

"“I am happy to provide a gift that makes people happy""

"If fans still remember me, it’s a gift for me and it’s something that is very valuable and I have to pay much attention to."
