The ex-soldier turned-artist is currently laying strategies to upgrade the Rwandan cultural troupe to represent Rwanda on the global scene through traditional music and dance.
In 2019, he was appointed as the technical director of the Rwandan cultural troupe Urukerereza. The job offered by the Ministry of Culture and Sports (MINISPOC) changed to the Ministry of Youth and Culture (MYCULTURE). During interviews with KT Press, Masamba said that he wanted to put in action from his family background to direct a Rwandan cultural troupe with all his experiences learnt from his father Athanase Sentore.

“Am now more concentrated on training Rwandan cultural troupe because I want it to elevate from where I found it musically, and I had to pause my projects for a while but am still a music recording artist,” Masamba told KT Press.
He added that the Rwandan cultural troupe represents the country’s culture and it needs to be perfect from all angles. Masamba’s music runs through blood as his late father Athanase Sentore, a composer, musician, and pioneer in teaching Rwandans in the Diaspora the traditional Kinyarwanda dance. Born in Bujumbura, Burundi, Massamba developed a keen ear for music and rhythm at a tender age.
