Representing Indiana was UG skywalkin. The UG in his name stands for Uganda, seeing that he was originally from Uganda, but as a missionary kid, traveled all over. Finally, his family settled in Indiana, seeing that his father needed surgery. Although he lost his dad fifteen years ago, his father wanted him to 'live the American dream'. UG has been playing music for over ten years and has performed with 2Chainz and Wiz Khalifa. Now, on the 'American Song Contest', he was ready to wow fans with his song -- 'Love in My City'. UG Skywalkin received mixed reactions overall.
