Highlights:
- Juliana Calls for Women’s Appreciation
- Kanyomozi: No Interest in Music Battle, Encourages Women’s Empowerment
- Singer Juliana Kanyomozi Avoids Showdown with Iryn Namubiru
In a recent statement, Juliana Kanyomozi, a former member of the girl singing duo I-Jay alongside Iryn Namubiru, has refused to engage in a battle with her fellow singer.
Juliana explained that she doesn’t see the need for such a contest, stating, “That’s not my cup of tea. I cannot battle anyone, but in my view, a battle means to prove something. Iryn and I have nothing to prove. What I would like is to be celebrated maybe as women. It may not only be Iryn, but also other women. But I say no to battles.”
Regarding the recent music battle between Sheebah and Cindy at Kololo Independence Grounds on September 15, Juliana remained impartial about the winner.
“Both Sheebah and Cindy are my friends. I loved both performances and I do not know which procedure was used to tell who won because a battle doesn’t mean only voice, but the dress code, dancing, and more,” Juliana commented.
She also advised fellow musicians to avoid exchanging words before, during, and after battles.
Juliana shared these thoughts during the concert of guitarist Myko Ouma at the Kampala Serena Hotel on October 6, 2023. She praised Myko for his consistent support during her live music performances and attended his concert to reciprocate the favor.
