Joshua Baraka is a 22-year-old Ugandan singer-songwriter who is making waves outside his country with his soulful lyrics and borderless sound. He鈥檚 one of Uganda鈥檚 most-streamed artists and has joined the likes of Ayra Starr and Tyla on Spotify's list of most promising new talent from Africa. His voice is often compared to that of Nigerian superstar Tems, and he has already collaborated with big names in afrobeats including Joeboy, Simi, King Promise and Bien.

As he tells DJ Edu, he chose a more international sound than some of his Ugandan contemporaries because he鈥檚 always listened to and admired globally successful artists like Bob Marley, Chronixx and Nat King Cole, and wanted, like them, to appeal to people everywhere.
