Should we say that longtime ‘enemies’ have finally buried their hatchet?
It was a historical moment on Friday night when self-proclaimed Big Size Bebe Cool and musician turned politician Bobi Wine shook hands and hugged during the 10 years of Eddy Kenzo concert that took place at Serena Hotel Kampala.
The two pulled the nice gesture amid chants from revelers.
As if that was not enough, the musicians also shared a table with Buganda Premier Charles Peter Mayiga.
All this was made possible by the man of the night Kenzo who asked the two to forego their past differences.
It is no secret that the music icons have been rivaling for more than 10 years.
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.
