If you missed Fem Effect Season Three on Wednesday night, you missed what can only be described as a cultural reset. Held at the ultra-luxe Noni Vie parking space, this annual spectacle transformed Kampala into a kaleidoscope of lights, sound, and raw, unfiltered energy—a night that births legends, cements legacies, and inspires future anthems.
From the moment the gates opened, Lugogo buzzed with a different kind of electricity—a pulse, a promise, a spark. And it didn’t take long for that spark to ignite a firestorm of rhythm and celebration. Uganda’s A-listers, socialites draped in designer, chart-topping artists, influencers, and the crème de la crème of the DJ scene flocked to the venue like it was a pilgrimage—and it was worth every step.
Even before the night’s headliner took the stage, the decks were ablaze. City Girl kicked things off with nostalgic soul cuts. DJ Mato followed with an explosive fusion of dancehall and Afrobeat that had the crowd in full voice. Selector Jay spun throwback bangers, and DJ Spinny—amplified by the infectious hype of Viana Indi—unleashed a euphoric Amapiano-meets-old-school set that shook the dancefloor.

Then came the surprise appearances from Azawi and Mun G at the Don Julio–sponsored event—an electric, unexpected gift. Azawi delivered a high-energy set with polished performance, while Mun G unleashed lyrical fire, with fans rapping along to every word. These weren’t just performances—they were love letters to Ugandan music, earning roars of appreciation from the crowd.
Still, the night belonged to Fem DJ. Dressed in a sleek silver outfit that caught every strobe and spotlight, he emerged at 1 a.m. like a sonic messiah. From the moment he touched the decks, the atmosphere shifted—time froze, then erupted.
Opening with a masterful blend of R&B and hip-hop classics—think Usher, Ne-Yo, and more—Fem DJ unified the crowd into one swaying, singing, screaming mass. Phone lights lit up the sky. Dancers took the stage, every move in sync with his beats. It wasn’t just a set; it was an experience. It felt like a cinematic climax in real life—intimate, explosive, unforgettable.
Just when the crowd thought they’d reached the peak, South Africa’s Tyler ICU appeared like an after-midnight bonus level. The Amapiano icon had the audience in full motion—dancing, sweating, transcending. His hypnotic set was a spiritual journey and a cardio workout all at once.
The show, hosted with charisma and flair by Viana Indi, Evelyn Mic, Top Boy, and Josh MC, never had a dull moment. Every detail, from lighting to lineup, was curated to perfection.
Simon Lapyem, Innovations Manager at UBL, summed it up:
“Fem DJ represents passion and originality—values that align perfectly with what Don Julio stands for. Watching him bring this vision to life was an absolute treat.”
Partygoer Jordan Mwesigwa said:
“I’ve been to many events in Kampala, but this? This was different. Fem DJ’s set gave me goosebumps. He didn’t just play music—he told a story. And Tyler ICU? That was the final nail. I’ll be talking about this night for the rest of the year.”
Fashion Influencer Lisa Tusiime added:
“Honestly, I came for the vibes and the outfits—but I stayed for the music. The energy was insane. Every DJ brought something different. Fem DJ is in a league of his own. Noni Vie felt like Ibiza for a night.”
