Swangz Avenue has announced the launch of the Swangz All-Star Album, an unprecedented collaborative project bringing together some of Uganda’s most celebrated artists.
The announcement was made across all Swangz Avenue socials, accompanied by a captivating video showcasing our talented lineup, including Vinka, Azawi, Winnie Nwagi, Elijah Kitaka, Zafarani, and Joy Good.
In the announcement video, Swangz Avenue co-founder Benon Mugumbya briefs the artists on a unique challenge: to set aside their individual commitments, cancel all bookings, and dedicate a week in Zanzibar to record a full-length album.
This project marks the first time these artists will collaborate on a single piece of art, promising a remarkable fusion of talent and creativity.
“This is more than just a Swangz Avenue project; it’s an Ugandan all-star album,” Benon stated.
“We have always aspired to create a collaborative album featuring various Ugandan artists, and we are excited to finally bring this vision to life. We are going to have several other artists feature on the album.”
Swangz Avenue CEO Julius Kyazze commented on the project’s potential impact: “This album will create immense exposure for everyone involved, especially for Ugandan music and brands that choose to associate with it. Music is a powerful passion point for Ugandans, and this project will undoubtedly resonate with a wide audience.”
