Rising Ugandan artist, Joshua Baraka, will make a big statement this Friday when his debut album “Juvie” is released.

Driven by international success from hits like “Wrong Places,” co-written with Grammy winner Jae5, the singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist has become Uganda’s most streamed artist ever at just 24.

He has established himself as one of Africa’s most promising new vocalists thanks to his breakthrough 2023 song “Nana” and partnerships with Joeboy, Simi, Bien, and King Promise.

The most pivotal moment in Joshua Baraka’s incredible ascent to prominence, “Juvie,” which was masterfully produced by Jae5, examines love, ambition, and the reality of young adulthood.
