2020 might have been an average year for Ugandan artist Shafik Walukagga commonly known as Fik Fameica but 2021 might surely be his comeback year according to BBC after they named him as one of the artistes to watch out for this year.
The artiste is the only Ugandan to make it on this list which also has other artistes like Eaine from South Africa, Gaz Mawete from DRC, Kabza De Small from South Africa from KiDi Ghana, Sha Sha from Zimbabwe, Soraia Ramos from Cape Verde while Zuchu Tanzania makes it as the other artiste from East Africa.
Also on the list is Tems and Omah Lay from Nigeria who are no strangers after their recent imprisonment in Uganda for having performed when concerts are undergoing a ban due to the coronavirus.
“Fik Fameica is breaking divisions and connecting with many young people through his music and has already scored collaborations with well-known artists from across Africa, including Patoranking, Vanessa Mdee, and Joeboy,” those are some of the reasons the artiste made it to this list.
