Diana Teta or simply Teta was born in 1992. She debuted in 2012 and has released debut single "kata".
At 21 years of age, she is ruling the airwaves with hit singles, performing with big names in traditional music, acting in theatre and writing songs. Diana Teta is the female behind the hit song "Fata Fata" and the only female in Gakondo Music group. The New Times' Dean Karemera sat down with her and below are the excerpts;
Diana Teta is a young Rwandan musician who sings both traditional and mainstream music. When I'm recording as a solo artist, I record mainstream music such as reggae, RnB and jazz and when I'm with Gakondo Music group I do traditional music.
She started recording in 2009 after coming in the top three in a singing competition that was conducted by a German group. They gave her a recording opportunity and she managed to record two songs although she didn't put much effort into promoting the songs because she wanted to go for Tusker Project Fame 5. In 2012, she tried TPF but she was eliminated in the first round. When she came back she thought about joining the music industry, after some serious thought, she made a decision to join the music industry. It's been a year since she started doing music professionally.
