Following Eddy Kenzo’s scathing remarks about Bebe Cool during his press conference, Bebe Cool has responded by calling the Sitya Loss star ‘large size’ and said that he feels constantly compared to him.
“If we were to group Eddy Kenzo with Afrigo Band, Bebe Cool, and Jose Chameleone, in what category would you place him?” Does it not occur to you that he is an up-and-coming musician? Bebe stated in a recent interview, “Since I have been in this profession for so long and you people believe that remaining at the top is simple, I have seen a lot of artists come and go.”
The Old Skool singer also boasted that he and Dizzy Nuts were the first Ugandans to be nominated for the UK’s MOBO international awards, and if awards were everything, Juliana would have hundreds of them because she is a thousand times better musically than he is.
Bebe continued by stating that the public has placed so much emphasis on Kenzo and requested that they give him time to see if he can withstand the test of time.
