KLEO NAMIIRO TO PERFORM LIVE AT KITENGE FESTIVAL UK 2016

Afro Beats' latest phenomenon Kleo has been revealed as a headlining act at this year's Kitenge Festival UK. The festival in its 4th year aims to bridge cultural gaps and instil African pride will be held on the 25th June at Barking F.C Stadium. Organisers of the event at Jozyz Agency confirmed Kleo's participation and revealed that she will be the perfect addition to the festival's cross-cultural blended programme.

Born in Uganda Kleo moved to the United Kingdom at 8months. Starting off as a model, actor and dancer from a young age, the business and events management graduate became Africa's very own triple threat. In 2012 Kleo Senorita took the UK by surprise, as she became one of the finalists in the MOBO unsung competition. She released several singles and videos introducing sensational diversity, sexy elegance and superior lyrics to the world of female rappers. Focusing on the 90’s, her fashion and style continues to trend making Kleo her fashion icon.  Her first solo video was “I’m into you” followed by “ride the wave”, “come too far and “kiss me” ft Swagga Jones which all received rave reviews on Youtube. Now coming back from a 2 years break the 24 year old independent woman has promised a line of AFRICAN BANGERS.

Her unique choice of instrumental, sweet voice and eccentric fashion sense has been reincarnated. The Ugandan rock princess is back to rock the afrobeat scene with a hint of her native Luganda language and Swahili. Catch Kleo live on stage at Kitenge Festival UK 2016.
