Veteran dancehall musician Kid Fox has revealed that he currently does not have any Ugandan musician whose music he regularly listens to, despite keeping an eye on some of the country’s newer artists.

The singer made the remarks while appearing on Galaxy FM, where he was asked about the Ugandan musicians currently on his playlist.

Kid Fox, who spent more than 14 years in Japan, said that his musical taste has largely remained rooted in Jamaican music.

“I had been listening to Jamaican music before I came back to Uganda, and I am still listening to the same music,” he said.

However, Kid Fox revealed that he has encountered several Ugandan artists through social media, particularly TikTok, mentioning Ava Peace,Blaq and Alien Skin among the names he knows.

He said he first came across Ava Peace and john Blaq through TikTok challenges while scrolling through his phone.

Asked about his previously reported collaboration with Ziza Bafana, Kid Fox confirmed that something involving the two artists is in the works, although the project is not yet fully confirmed.

“There is a project coming up with Ziza Bafana, but it is not so concrete yet. Crystal Panda is also in between it. In fact, the project belongs to Crystal Panda,” Kid Fox explained.

The veteran musician also spoke about a separate collaboration with Alien Skin, which he believes could make a major impact once released.

“That one with Alien Skin is going to be fire. I don’t know why it has not been released, but the moment it comes out, it is going to take over,” he said.

For now, fans will have to wait for both collaborations to officially materialise.
