Although other children like Florence Nabukeera and Blessed Queen have composed songs before, Maureen Ayebare is the first to compose a full music album. On July 12, she launched her music album at her school. A music album is a number of songs put together in one CD.

Ayebare sings well like her mom, Mrs. Freda Musaasizi and her dad, Mr. Moses Musaasizi. Both her parents are born-again Christians of Victory Church, Ndeeba, Kampala.

According to her mother, Ayebare started singing as soon as she began to talk. She would hear her parents sing and imitate them. Soon, her parents started composing songs for her. Later, she started composing her own songs using words that are written in the Bible.

When Ayebare got many songs, her parents took her to a studio. When you are in a studio, you cannot hear noise from outside, so you record only the song you are singing.

Ayebare's album, Tusinze, has six songs. All of them are gospel songs. Ayebare also sings songs about WBS Television and Movit Products.

The headmaster, Martin Isagara, said although Ayebare spends time singing, she does her class work well. "She knows when to read," he said.
