Spotify has announced multitalented and chart-topping Ugandan artist Vinka as its EQUAL Africa Ambassador for October 2023. Vinka joins a cohort of outstanding artists characterised by strength, talent, and of course great music, such as Makhadzi, Maandy, and Xeniah Manasse, just to name a few.
Vinka’s introduction to music started with artists such as Awilo Longomba and Koffi Olomide whose music was played regularly while she was growing up. She later entered the music industry as a dancer, a career she soon left behind for artist management.
The switch from technical riders to the mic was the start of a thriving music career in which Vinka has produced hit after hit, with songs like ‘Malaika’ and ‘Thank God’ showcasing her artistry.
