Get ready, East Africa, Uganda’s very own BET Award winner Eddy Kenzo is about to turn the CHAN 2024 closing ceremony into an unforgettable party. Alongside Kenya’s Savara and Tanzania’s Zuchu, Kenzo is set to headline a musical spectacle that will crown a month-long football drama with pure regional pride and African flair.
This isn’t just any performance, it’s a moment. Against the backdrop of a tournament with fans cheering, crying, and bonding over the beautiful game, Kenzo will step onto the stage to remind us of what makes African unity so electrifying. With his hits that blur the boundaries between Afropop and dancehall, he’s more than a performer; he’s a storyteller, a vibe-setter, and now, a continental ambassador.
For Uganda, the choice of Kenzo isn’t just musical, it’s pride in motion. Kenzo embodies the continent’s creative beat from the viral charm of “Sitya Loss” to making history as Uganda’s first Grammy nominee and becoming a trusted creative advisor to the president. This performance will echo not just inside Nairobi’s stadium, but in dreams across African cities, powering through with rhythm and ambition.
As the final whistle blows on CHAN, it’s Kenzo who will carry the crowd from tension to jubilation. He’s the reminder that Africa’s soul isn’t found just in football – it’s in the music that weaves us together, beat by beat.
Because when Eddy Kenzo sings, all of Africa dances.
