Elizabeth Music Group is proud to announce the signing of Cukie Dady to an exclusive publishing agreement, further expanding the company's growing roster of elite African music producers and songwriters.
The agreement comes at a defining moment in Cukie Dady's career, following the incredible success of "Uhakika (Remix)" by Ibraah featuring Zuchu, one of Tanzania's biggest records of the year. As the producer behind the hit, Cukie Dady continues to establish himself as one of East Africa's most exciting creative forces, delivering records that resonate both locally and internationally.
"Uhakika (Remix)" has achieved remarkable commercial success across multiple platforms, demonstrating the global reach of Tanzanian music. The record reached #1 on the Apple Music Tanzania chart, while also breaking into international markets by peaking at #4 on the Audiomack Top Songs Chart in France.
The song quickly became one of the country's standout releases, debuting as one of Tanzania's fastest-rising songs of all time. It also climbed to #2 on the YouTube Tanzania Weekly Chart, where it has remained one of the nation's highest-performing records for more than three months.
These achievements reflect not only the strength of the record itself but also Cukie Dady's ability to create commercially successful music that connects with audiences across streaming services, social media, and digital platforms.
Through this exclusive publishing partnership, Elizabeth Music Group will provide publishing representation, global royalty collection, creative opportunities, and sync licensing representation for Cukie Dady's catalog. The company will also work alongside him to maximize the long-term value of his songwriting and production credits while creating new opportunities for international collaborations and placements.
