Gravity Omutujju joins a growing list of Ugandan artists whose music has reached global audiences through popular streaming platforms.
Eddy Kenzo’s “Mbilo Mbilo” featured in Netflix’s “Holiday In The Wild,” and Pia Pounds’ “Tupaate” was included in Netflix’s “Young, Rich and African.”
Arts and Culture journalist, Andrew Kaggwa Mayiga commented on this news saying Gravity’s feature is “proof that art is the most complicated product there is. Who could have imagined Okwepicha ending up in an episode of a British TV series? But again, everyone shouldn’t be doing such music, you may not be that lucky.”
