From marvelling at the Indian Ocean to spotting whales and penguins, the You the Boss hitmaker expressed his excitement about being in South Africa.

Taking to his Instagram stories, Rick Ross said: “South Africa, the boss [is] back. The boss is home. Thank you for having me. Let’s have some fun, let’s make history. Let’s create content. Let’s make sure the rest of the world recognises our greatness, our beauty, our visions.

Spice Diana, whose real name is Hajara Namukwaya, started her career as an actress with Equator Production in Luzira before transitioning to music.

Her first major hit, Onsanula, was both written by her and produced by Dr. Fizo, with the accompanying music video being shot by the same film company she worked with at the time.

Diana has identified Onsanula as one of her four favourite songs, alongside Koona (featuring Pallaso), Ndi Mu Love (written by King Saha), and Siri Regular (written by Nince Henry).

Last Friday, Spice Diana celebrated a decade in the music industry with a highly successful concert at the Kampala Serena Hotel.
