A Little Context
Taremwa Paul, best known by his stage name TPaul 256, was born on August 25, 1995, and has quickly become one of the brightest stars in Uganda’s music scene. At just 25 years old, TPaul is already an accomplished singer, songwriter, recording, and performing artist. Based in Kakoba, a lively suburb of Mbarara City, he is currently signed under Alpha Music Entertainment, where he continues to craft music that resonates deeply with his fans.
