Promising talent: Every beginning of the year, we forecast how the year will be shaped in the entertainment industry focusing at talents that broke out and left us yearning for more
Joshua Baraka
Joshua Baraka appeared on this list last year and true to our prediction, he had a tremendous year with Nana. The song was Uganda’s most exported local song on Spotify with 3.7 million streams while the remix alongside Bien of Sauti Sol, King Promise from Ghana and Joeboy from Nigeria was streamed more than 1.2 million times. The same song was the third most played song on Ugandan radio stations. Joshua Baraka’s new EP, Growing Pains has been streamed more than a million times just by December. With these numbers that are still growing, we believe there is no stopping for Baraka. If 2023 was his breakthrough, 2024 will likely be his year.
