While under Stingerz, a dance group, they had been hired to do some work for Obsessions, so Mulindwa already knew her potential.
In an interview, Sheebah said she didn’t feel confident enough to take the job, considering Obsessions attracted girls who had been to the best schools in the country and she had dropped out of S.2.
The group was also at its peak, having dropped massive hits.
"After Jangu, these girls were blowing up,” she said. “Obsessions was crazy... it was famous. It was every little girl's dream. So, me, being chosen... first of all, I didn't think I was pretty enough to join them, or I was in shape enough to be there... I was learnt enough to be there…”
Sheebah Karungi, who also goes by Samalie Njagala, was born on November 11, 1989, and grew up in Kawempe, a division in Kampala.
The songstress, also known as, Queen Sheebah, was born to Edith Kabazungu and Ahamada Kimali Musoke. She dropped out of school in S.2 while a student of Midland High School, Kawempe and joined the music industry when she was 15 as a dancer.

She quit Obsessions and in 2010 she dropped Kunyenyenza, her first official single, produced by Washington and written by Cindy. Then Sizzaman wrote for her Automatic and it became a hit.
