Formed in 2015, the group consists of three members: Julio, Bobby Lash, and Mr. Lee, encompassing two vocalists and a ragga artist.

CAREER AND PIVOTAL MOMENTS
The trio embarked on their musical journey in 2009 during high school, recording demos and laying the foundation for the formation of B2C Entertainment. Their breakthrough occurred in 2013 with the release of their debut single, “Omutima Guluma,” setting the stage for their future success.
The pivotal year of 2013 saw the release of “Wansensera,” marking their entry into the music scene. Their fortunes were further elevated when they signed with manager Andy Events, a collaboration that propelled their career to new heights.
In 2017, their debut album, “Born To Conquer,” featuring hits like “Wansensera,” “Nyongera,” “Njabala” with Spice Diana, “Tokigezza,” “So Fly,” and “Wansensera,” solidified their position in the music industry.
THE ERA OF ‘ANDY EVENTS’ COMES TO A CLOSE
Following a successful concert in September 2018, B2C publicly announced their separation from long-time manager Andy Events. Citing Mugerwa’s other commitments, the artists emphasized the need for undivided attention in the entertainment industry.
The breakup was fueled by discontent over inadequate compensation for their hard work, particularly after a packed VIP show where they received a mere 5 million shillings to split among themselves. Despite the bitter parting, Mugerwa’s three-year tenure as their manager witnessed the creation of over 15 music videos and garnered them recognition through awards like the Hipipo Awards, extending their popularity beyond Uganda with widespread radio play.
