Weasel also cautioned the general public to be wary of youthful musicians who dominate the charts with a handful of singles but are unable to play for an entire half-hour at a time.
While giving a gig in Mubende over the weekend, the singer Weasel Manizo, who is presently performing at shows by himself following the passing of his singing partner Moses Radio, shared the names of some of his favorite musicians.
The actor best known for his role in “Tokyoyitaba” began his performance by stating,
“I would like to take this opportunity to honor two artists who have been successful for a significant amount of time, Chameleone and Bobi Wine.
The rest, I don’t know,” the speaker said, to the roaring applause of the throng.
Weasel also cautioned the general public to be wary of youthful musicians who dominate the charts with a handful of singles but are unable to play for an entire half-hour at a time.
Bebe Cool published a list of musicians who had successful careers in 2017, but she omitted late Radio and Weasel from the lineup. She did this at the beginning of this year. In addition to this, Bebe Cool asserted that Weasel is not a singer. Since then, though, the two have been at each other’s throats.
