He produced ‘One Dance’. One of the biggest, if not the biggest song of the modern chart era. It was number one for 15 weeks, the longest in the modern era; the hold this song had might never be replicated.
It was everywhere. On the phone, in the car, some weird saloon, or on a certain radio station at 4am. Some people were busy trying to find WizKid’s voice in the song.
Now, the man behind that song, not Drake or Wizkid, but the man behind that song’s production, DJ Maphorisa, a name behind other anthems such as Major Lazer’s ‘Particula’, Tyla ICU’s ‘Mnike’, Mafikizolo’s ‘Love Portion’, and ‘Abalele’, among others, will be live in Kampala this Saturday.
DJ Maphorisa will be the headliner at Aura bar and lounge’s two-year anniversary celebrations slated for this Saturday, May 2. And as has become the norm, the world’s most celebrated luxury tequila Don Julio will be at the center of the celebrations.
Aura, which is famous for luxury nights such as the ‘Chop Life Sundays’, and the annual ‘One Man One Bottle’, that are hosted by Don Julio 1942 Influencer Sheilah Gashumba, as well as the ‘Ignite Fridays’, and the 2025 ‘Old School brunch’, to name a few, will be commemorating two years of unmatched service to the Ugandan gregarious community.
Guests should expect a Don Julio toast in all forms; bottle serves, perfect serves, cocktails, shots, you name it.
DJ Maphorisa will be joined by a line up of some of Uganda’s top DJs, including, DJ Dash, DJ Spinny, Fem DJ, City Girl, Selector Jay, DJ Jose and Sheilah Gashumba aka Lil Stunner, who will turn the tempo up with dope mixes.
“Don Julio is proud to celebrate this milestone with Aura lounge. This celebration is a reflection of the dedication, consistency, and persistence the Aura team takes to curate premium experiences for their consumers, just like our tequila,” said Judie Nandekya Senior Brand Manager Tequila and Rum East Africa. “We congratulate Aura for reaching this milestone and we hope to celebrate many more with them.”
