Sheebah Karungi, currently in Canada, has shared what she described as her first photo of 2025. In the image, she is seen holding her baby boy, Amir.
She captioned the post on social media: "First Pic 2025 🥰 Stepped out yesterday with My Sonshine☀️ Little Bird 💙🕊️."
Following her October 4, 2024 concert at Lugogo Cricket Oval, Sheebah announced plans to take a break from music after 14 years of performing. At the time, she was preparing for the arrival of her baby and felt the need to step back.
"It’s just a break; I’m not leaving forever. I’ve been performing since I was 14 years old, and I’m now 34. I think God decided it was time for me to take a pause," she said.
While she didn’t specify how long the break would last, Sheebah hinted at releasing projects she had already completed during her time off.
Raised by her single mother, Edith Kabazungu, in Kawempe, Sheebah’s early life was shaped by financial struggles. Her mother worked in coffee factories to support her family, often through manual labour.
To ease the financial burden on her family, Sheebah dropped out of school at 15 and pursued her passion for dance. She began her career with the Stingerz dance group before joining the Obsessions Music Group in 2006, where her interest in music blossomed.
Sheebah launched her solo career after leaving Obsessions, achieving her first major breakthrough with the release of Ice Cream in 2014, the lead single from her debut EP of the same name. The project, along with hits like Automatic and Twesana, cemented her place in Uganda’s music industry.
She has since released several successful albums, including Nkwatako (2016), Karma (2017), and Samalie (2021), featuring chart-topping hits like Nsekula, Tuvunya, and Sweet Sensation.
