ABOUT
Freed Mushaga is a Singer, Songwriter, (Paralegal) and dynamic African Soul/Pop artist born in Bukavu, in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. "His vibrant stage presence channels the spirit of Angélique Kidjo, the innovation of Michael Jackson, and the finesse of Lokua Kanza, while his warm, suave tone and theatrical performances carve out a unique artistic identity. Deeply influenced by Congolese traditions and global icons like Miriam Makeba, Youssou N'Dour and Jonathan Butler, Freed weaves together Soul, African Pop, Jazz, and traditional folk to create a powerful and universal organic sound, charged with emotion and social relevance"
Currently part of East African Records collective, Freed continues to build momentum across East Africa with memorable shows in Kampala, Kigali, Bujumbura, and Nairobi. His recently released EP, "JE SUIS", that dropped on May 9th, is one of his most anticipated works to date—a poetic and playful fusion of Soul, Jazz, Folk, and Afrobeats born from a place of personal truth and cultural defiance. The 4 tracks-project explores themes of identity, resilience, childhood innocence, self-awareness, and the unrelenting power of love.
