Joshua Baraka
One song will take you places but only if you know how to make the right moves. He might be criticized for fronting his ‘Nana’ song but Joshua Baraka and his management know exactly what they are doing.
After having several African tours and performances, the artiste with this hit song has managed to become the most nominated artiste from Uganda in the just-released list of nominees in the AFRIMMA awards.
Joshua Baraka is nominated in the Song of the Year category, Best Collaboration, and Video of the Year. All these for the remix of the song alongside Joeboy, King Promise & Bien.
