Lydia Jazmine gets surprise serenade ahead of ‘The One and Only’ concert

What the report says

Lydia Jazmine received an unexpected musical surprise during rehearsals at Eno Beats Studio in Makindye on Wednesday, according to Sqoop Uganda. The interruption came when Ronald Tumwizere paused the session and performed her song “Cherie” before joining her in an impromptu moment that was also used to unveil a new brand partnership.

Sqoop Uganda reported that the reveal was tied to V&A Sherry coming on board ahead of Jazmine’s “The One and Only” concert, set for Friday at Lugogo Cricket Oval. The drinks brand said the collaboration is meant to support Ugandan music and women in entertainment, and it follows its involvement with other women-focused and local-talent platforms, including pageants and concerts mentioned in the article.

Tumwizere described the partnership as a natural fit because of Jazmine’s profile and the brand’s emphasis on backing Ugandan talent and empowering women. Jazmine, who has been active in Uganda’s music scene for more than a decade, said she was grateful for the support and encouraged fans to attend. The article also noted that V&A Sherry will have a dedicated bar at the venue, with both neat serves and cocktails available. The concert is expected to feature some of her best-known songs, including “You and Me,” “Masuuka,” “Kapeesa” and “Same Way.”
