Martha Mukisa has sparked a conversation about modern dating expectations, questioning men who, in her view, increasingly want to be treated like “princesses.”
The Black Magic Entertainment singer said some men are spending too much time trying to look attractive on social media, particularly on Snapchat, while neglecting the responsibilities traditionally expected of them.
Mukisa took particular issue with men who use filters and spend hours portraying lifestyles online that, according to her, do not reflect their actual circumstances.
“The challenge we’re facing now is that we have men who these days want to be treated like princesses,” Mukisa said.
She questioned why a man who is expected to work hard and provide for his family would spend an entire day on Snapchat presenting an image of a lifestyle he does not actually live.
“The men of these days have taken a wrong route. How can a man spend time on Snapchat the whole day showing us a lifestyle yet you have to be looking for money?” she asked.
But Mukisa’s comments were not limited to social media habits. The singer also addressed men who feel intimidated when approaching women who are financially more successful.
According to Mukisa, there is nothing inherently wrong with a woman earning more money than her partner. What matters, she argued, is that the man contributes value to the relationship and remains committed to building a successful future together.
“We’re not here to make you feel weaker. We’re here to see that we develop and multiply together,” she said.
Mukisa encouraged men not to view a woman’s financial success as a threat, arguing that the couple can combine their strengths and resources rather than turning financial differences into a source of insecurity.
“It’s okay for a woman to be doing financially better than a man, but as a man you have to add value to the woman and make money, then create an empire out of it all,” she added.
The singer also suggested that women can genuinely enjoy supporting their partners financially, pushing back against the idea that accepting such help necessarily diminishes a man’s pride.
“Sometimes it even makes us feel happy when we give men some money,” Mukisa said.
Her comments ultimately frame relationships as partnerships where financial circumstances can differ without necessarily determining who holds value — provided both people are contributing toward building the life they want together.
