In a move that has set Uganda’s gospel scene ablaze, chart-topping artist Levixone (Sam Lucas Lubyogo) has released a new single, “Life Is Better,” dedicated to his fiancée, fellow gospel powerhouse Desire Luzinda. The track, unveiled just weeks before their highly anticipated August 15 wedding, is a soaring tribute to their redemptive love story and shared faith.
The Song: A Declaration of Divine Love
While details of the song’s production remain under wraps, “Life Is Better” is already generating buzz across streaming platforms. Known for hits like “Chikibombe” and “Turn the Replay,” Levixone channels his signature blend of Afro-gospel rhythms and heartfelt lyricism into this romantic ode. The title alone speaks volumes—echoing Levixone’s recent declaration that Luzinda is his “answered prayer” and “quiet miracle”
Key themes resonate through the dedication:
- Redemption: Both artists’ journeys from hardship to hope
- Divine Timing: A nod to their 7-year friendship-turned-romance
- Transformative Love: Celebrating Luzinda as a “gift from God”
The Backstory: From Private Devotion to Public Celebration
The release strategically follows Levixone’s July 26 proposal, which he shared in an emotional social media post:
“For so many years, I kept this close to my heart... God gave me the love of my life. My best friend said ‘YES’ – my answered prayer, my forever.”
Luzinda, who once dismissed romance rumours to focus on motherhood and ministry, responded equally powerfully:
“God healed my heart, renewed my faith, and rewrote my story... Love truly wins when it starts with Him.”
Their union unites two extraordinary narratives:
· Levixone’s rise from Kampala’s streets (Kosovo slum) to gospel stardom through faith and philanthropy
· Luzinda’s transformation from secular artist to evangelist after a 2018 spiritual awakening, now leading the Desire Luzinda Foundation International
Breaking Barriers: A Love That Defies Convention
· The couple’s 8-year age gap (Levixone, 32; Luzinda, 40) ignited social media debates, but “Life Is Better” emerges as a melodic rebuttal to critics. As relationship counsellor Harriet Nalumansi emphasised:
· “Maturity has nothing to do with age... What matters is how two people understand and support each other.”
· The song embodies this ethos – a testament to emotional connection triumphing over societal expectations.
Wedding Bells & Kingdom Impact
With Apostle Grace Lubega of Phaneroo Ministries set to officiate their August 15 wedding, “Life Is Better” arrives as both a personal serenade and a public celebration of “kingdom love.” Fans speculate the track might feature during their ceremony, weaving seamlessly into a narrative the couple frames as God-ordained.
Industry reactions have been euphoric:
- Halima Namakula: “May the Lord guide you!”
- MTN Uganda: “Embaga yadi? Congratulations!”
- Barbie Kyagulanyi: Publicly endorsed Luzinda’s post
A New Chapter for Ugandan Gospel
Beyond romance, “Life Is Better” symbolizes gospel music’s evolving role in Uganda, where faith narratives intersect with cultural conversations about redemption, age norms, and second chances. As two of the genre’s most influential voices unite, their collaborative potential (musically and philanthropically) hints at a powerhouse partnership poised to inspire generations.
“Life Is Better” is now available to stream on major platforms. Levixone and Desire Luzinda’s wedding is scheduled to take place on August 15 at an undisclosed venue in Kampala.
