Selma Uamusse

Selma Uamusse is a Mozambican-Portuguese singer, composer, and cultural activist whose vibrant sound bridges continents and traditions. Born in Maputo, Mozambique, and later based in Lisbon, her music fuses Afro-Portuguese rhythms, spiritual themes, and contemporary electronic textures. Drawing from her Christian faith and Mozambican heritage, tracks like *Ngoma* and *HOYO HOYO* pulse with marrabenta grooves and traditional choral harmonies, while collaborations like *No Guns* (feat. Cheny Wa Gune) highlight her commitment to cross-cultural dialogue. Uamusse’s work often carries a socially conscious undercurrent, celebrating resilience and unity through multilingual lyrics in Portuguese, Changana, and English. Her recent releases—from the meditative *Para Sempre Yhwh* to the joyfully nostalgic *Como É Bom Ser Criança*—showcase her ability to transform deeply personal storytelling into universal celebrations of identity and hope.
