Gogwa Namakajo, an artist with a rich Swedish-Ugandan-Rwandan heritage, weaves his diverse cultural tapestry into every facet of his creative work. With over a decade of experience, his portfolio spans an impressive range of disciplines, including branding design, logotypes, poster illustrations, image retouching, book covers, music album artwork, playing cards, fashion and product design, animation, and 3D renders.
In the realm of music, Gogwa transcends the visual arts as a musician, songwriter, and producer, embodying his sonic identity through ‘PENTHOSSE,’ his DJ alter ego and stage persona. This project is a vibrant fusion of pop electronica, resonating with the dynamic energy of Gogwa’s artistic vision.
His music and fashion label is set to launch with the debut single ‘Because of You,’ a track that pays homage to Gogwa’s most significant influences—icons like Prince, Michael Jackson, and George Michael. The single is a masterful blend of sensual R&B vocals and irresistibly sexy beats and riffs, designed to electrify the club and festival scene.
Simultaneously, Gogwa is preparing to make a statement in the fashion world with a couture show in Paris, scheduled for a summer release. This event promises to showcase his unique approach to fashion, where the worlds of sound and style converge in a captivating experience.
