Zari Dancers Africa: Ugandan Teenagers That Are Revolutionising The Entertainment Industry.

The Ugandan entertainment industry is taking a new shape, whereby although it was initially dominated by adults, the industry is nowadays attracting youngsters and teenage performers to exploit their talents.One of the teenage groups that is promoting this revolution in the entertainment industry is known as the Zari Dancers Africa, who are a dancing and singing outfit. https://youtu.be/b3ua6iIcRXw Signed to Black Market Records, the Zari Dancers, who have a new video out titled ‘Dike’, have set a trend that other teenage entertainment groups like the Ghetto Kids, Galaxy Dancers and others can only pick a leaf from.Although ‘Dike’ is their newest project, the Zari Dancers have been on the entertainment scene for a long time, having stormed the limelight after they dropped their debut video ‘Kelewa’. Having mastered the art of choreography, the Zari Dancers are currently one of the most sought after teenage performing groups, because of the vibrant experience they breathe into every music video they choreograph.Over time, the Zari Dancers have choreographed music videos for several artists in Uganda and across East Africa, some of which include; David Lutalo (Onsanuula), Daxx Kartel (Omupangisa), Mesarch Ssemakula (Onkuba), Aziz Azion, Pastor Wilson Bugembe, Gravity Omutujju and Fik Fameica (Muko) (Bambi) by Mbuzi Gang, (This Boy) by Angella Katatumba, (For You) by Shakira Shakiraa, (Bwoti) by Daddy Andre feat Fik Fameica and (Call Me) by Junior Gentle, among others. It should be noted that the Zari Dancers initially started out as a simple idea that was hatched by a group of four youths namely; Zaina aka Zari, Josephine (DVJ Nagi), Mathew (Mc Mist) and Saudah in 2013, when they started gathering young kids from the neighboring ghetto homesteads, who they sensitized about the effects of getting involved in criminal activities.Around 2013, the group kicked off their commercial dancing career and their dreams took a dramatic turn when they were signed up by Black Market Records in 2021 after the record label’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Cedric Singleton picked interest in their performances.Since then, they have never looked back and have gone ahead to do one great project after another and recently they have since scooped a segment in Alex Muhangi’s weekly Comedy Store show, during which they thrill revellers with their energetic performances.

Swat Matire On A Mission To Uplift Upcoming Ghetto Artists.

By Brenda, Swat Matire has had an incredible rise through his music career so far, and he is showing no signs of letting up as he delivers his brand new project \’ _Katanuka_ \’. The rapper from Kenya has really taken the game by storm over the last couple of years and his achievements already are testament to that. https://youtu.be/LGao06CscmU Just a month ago Swat Matire gave us Ex by Shekinah Karen and it already has more than 100K views so far.Last week, he released _Katanuka_ featuring Squidkeed and Ocham with Director Tony De Gigz. The visuals of the song was epic and very creative, not the usual \”Swat-songs graphics\”. He comes in hard and sets the tone for the rest of the project. With slick flows and some punchy bars within the track as well. The trio talk about their gang and street life, the struggles they have been through and the loses they\’ve faced. They use the local sheng (which is the hood language) to recite their lyrics.To hear this sort of story from the perspective that Swat is writing from is something different, and it shows a certain level of penmanship that it is hard not to respect whether you are a fan or not.The other thing that I have to mention and that Swat can do so well is create a catchy banger you can expect to hear in clubs and at parties up and down the country, and he delivers yet again on this project.Katanuka is available to stream and download now, so head over to Spotify and Youtube so go and check it out and support the project.
