Uganda’s fast-rising young vocalist Leyna K real name Leyna Kagere has set off for Moscow, Russia, where she will proudly represent the Pearl of Africa in the “Our Generation” global singing competition—a prestigious international platform that brings together talented young voices from around the world to celebrate music, culture, and creativity.
At just her age, Leyna K has already captured hearts at home with her soulful tone, stage confidence, and ability to tell stories through song. Now, she carries the hopes of an entire nation as she steps onto a global stage where talent meets cultural pride.
Before her departure, the budding star spoke with a mix of excitement and humility about the opportunity, calling it “a dream come true” and “a chance to show the world what Uganda’s young artists are capable of.”
“This is more than just a competition,” Leyna said. “It’s a chance to represent Uganda’s music, our energy, and our spirit. I’m so grateful for this opportunity, but I need the support of my people to make it count. I want Ugandans everywhere to rally behind me—vote, share, and help bring this victory home.”
Her participation in “Our Generation” follows months of preparation, voice training, and mentorship from a team of local creatives determined to see a Ugandan artist shine on the world stage. The competition, hosted in Moscow, gathers exceptional young performers from across continents to compete in vocal mastery, stage performance, and artistic expression.
