Kapeke Speaks Out on UK Collaborations Snub

Kapeke has finally answered why he did not do any collaborations with UK-based artists during his recent London trip. The fast-rising Ugandan musician played on Valentine’s Day at the Royal Regency Hotel in London.

However, many fans expected him to return with significant international collaborations. That did not happen. Now, Kapeke has stated why. After returning to Uganda earlier this week, Kapeke has been making headlines. His increased international recognition has prompted disagreement among supporters.

When asked why he shunned collaborations with UK singers, Kapeke was unequivocal. “You don’t just come from nowhere and make a collaboration. You make plans. I am not searching for cooperation with those who aren’t interested. I only collaborate with those that understand my art.”

According to Kapeke, music alliances are not random. They demand preparation, alignment, and mutual respect. He highlighted that he avoids working for hype. Kapeke explained that every partnership he performs is intentional. He concentrates on musicians who understand his sound and vision. Meanwhile, he avoids hurried ventures focused on convenience.

This deliberate strategy could explain his continuous rise in Uganda’s music industry. Unlike many musicians chasing instant worldwide features, Kapeke looks focused on long-term growth. Kapeke’s London performance improved his global visibility.

His Valentine’s Day event attracted Ugandans living abroad and new worldwide fans. Furthermore, he is currently one of the most booked Ugandan musicians. His demand continues to grow both locally and internationally. Promoters are lining up for performances.

With this momentum, admirers feel international collaborations may still happen — but on his terms. Kapeke seems committed to build his brand cautiously. Instead of jumping into deals, he is safeguarding his artistic identity. Will his tactics pay off globally? Only time will tell.
