The leader of traditional healers in Uganda Sophia Namutebi famously known as Mama Fiina has asked longtime rivals Bobi Wine, Bebe Cool and Jose Chameleone to reconcile.
Mama Fiina made the request during Bebe Cool’s ‘Tondeka Ekiwatule Mutima Gwa Zaabu’ concert that took place on Boxing Day.
“I’m ready to reconcile Bebe Cool, Bobi Wine and Chameleone. These three were friends. They need to settle this grudge and forgive each other,” she said.
Adding, “If Bobi Wine doesn’t forgive Bebe Cool, let Bebe Cool forgive Bobi Wine.”
Bobi Wine’s Yee Seebo concert in Busabala on the same day had been cancelled.
Many years back, Bebe Cool and Bobi Wine were actually best friends. In fact, they even had Chameleone as their common enemy and even produced a song that hit at him for dating Dorotia, who many said was Chameleone’s cougar or sugar mummy.
It is Bebe Cool who even came up with the name Firebase Crew. Then one day after a music concert, the two were involved in a heated disagreement and since then they have always had nothing but scorn for each other.
They have produced song after song beefing each other. To prove that they hate each other, they even held a music show dubbed ‘battle of champions’ that almost turned to blows.
Many people think their rivalry will never end. In fact when Bobi Wine’s father died in 2015, Bebe Cool chose to go to Kiwatule to attend the Gagamel graduates’ party. Gagamel fans can never mingle with Firebase fans, literally.
