The organisers are yet to announce the full lineup of artists and DJs expected to perform at the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improper Access debuted on August 30, 2024, at Kigali Universe, with a focus on showcasing female artists and DJs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inaugural edition featured Nigerian artist Dopecaesar, Ugandan singer Etania, and Rwandan DJs Brianne, Sonia and Alida, alongside Senshi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event returned for its second edition on June 28, 2025, at Zaria Court Kigali, with South African DJ Blue Aiva as the headline act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other performers included Rwandan DJs Niny and Higa, as well as artists Zuba, Muyango and Etania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knowless will take centre stage at the upcoming edition, bringing her experience in Rwanda’s music industry and a catalogue of songs that have earned her a strong following.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She is among Rwanda’s established musicians, having built a career spanning more than a decade. In 2015, she won the Primus Guma Guma Super Star competition, becoming the first woman to claim the title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
