There is a belief that before they become household names, Nigerian artistes have to first perform in Uganda. Fact? Uhhhhm, well, we have witnessed the blow up of Burna Boy, Davido, Ruger, Crayon, Kiz Daniels, Omah Ley and Tems among others after they made debut stints here. Might Uganda's hospitality have played some kind of role in this success?
Marvin Records can count on that possibility with their ne kids Bayanni, Magixxx and Boy Spyce, who staged a joint show on Saturday, April 5 at Ndere Cultural Centre.
Looks like you must know how to dance to work at NRG.
The show, which is part of their East African tour was sponsored and organised by Talent Africa Group and the trio did not disappoint their fans, who turned up in huge numbers to witness a splendid performance.
The Nigerian artistes performed for close to two hours, with each doing about 30 minutes. The last session had all of them on stage as they performed Overdose.
And the girls always, fall in.
Bayanni was the first on stage with Ta Ta Ta, Casanova, Goddess and Body, among others. His performance was engaging in that he invited some people from the crowd for a dance competition and the last girl on stage earned herself a bouquet of flowers.
Boy Spyce (R) brought some spice too.
Boy Spyce came through With You, Nobody, and Relationships, among others Magixx came last and he was clearly the favourite of the three, going by the reception he received.
And the girls always, fall in.
His songs hit different and some fans were even emotional while singing along to songs such as All Over, Love Don’t Cost A Dime, Shaye and Loyal. He even invited Joshua Baraka to do their No Lie jam.
Earlier on, Joshua Baraka had energised the crowd with his Nana, Dalilah, Nominees, Falling In Love and Digii IV.
Vinka as usual, came with all the vibes in check.
He was shortly followed by Vinka whose performance was more of a choreography session – but no one was complaining because she was a surprise act and she brought the energy.
Along with her dancers, they performed Love Panic, Believe, Tubikole, Chekecha, Sirubala and All Over You.
And the girls!
Denesi, Bruce Dickson and Ava Peace were the other performers at the event while Sheila Salta and Sheila Gashumba were the main hosts of the event.
The crowd, mostly young, started accessing the venue as early as 5pm with the numbers growing up to 10pm.
Magixx, famed for All Over, was a crowd favourite.
Bayani, Magixx and Boy Spyce started this tour in Kenya on Friday, April 4 before coming to Uganda on Saturday and concluded their performance in Tanzania on April 6.
