Bebe Cool Narrates How His Daughter Beata Almost Died During Album Release

Gagamel boss Bebe Cool left revellers at his ‘Break The Chains’ listening party at Noni Vie emotional after he narrated how his teenage daughter, Beata Ssali, almost lost her life last year and needed a life-saving emergency medical attention.

The singer said that at the time his daughter suffered this medical scare, he was in Nigeria recording this album.

He even thought of aborting the project despite having footed all the expenses. However, he couldn’t get a direct, quick flight back to the country. Fortunately, seven doctors took over the situation about an hour later and worked on her, eventually saving her life.

“I recall almost putting a stop to this project to return to my daughter because it seemed she might lose her life. I had already paid for all the project expenses, but I thought about coming home to be with her. Sadly, there were no direct flights back to Uganda, but thankfully, seven doctors showed up after the incident and worked on her until she recovered,” he shared.

The Wire Wire singer even revealed that one of the songs on this album, known as Home, was recorded on the very day of the unfortunate incident. It was a tribute to his daughter, and he sang part of it.

Meanwhile, a lot of celebrities such as Juliana Kanyomozi, Azawi, Laika Music, Joshua Baraka, Benon Mugumbya, Alien Skin, among others, all turned up for this event. Bebe Cool featured Nigerian female powerhouse, female singer Yemi Alade, and Uganda’s budding singer, Joshua Baraka, on some of the 16 tracks on this album.

Eddy Kenzo Brags About His Presidential Powers After Bruno K's Concert

Singer and head of the Uganda National Musicians Federation (UNMF), Eddy Kenzo) has boasted about being the President’s right-hand man wherever he goes. This comes after he extended the performance curfew during Bruno K’s Ekiboozi concert by an additional hour.

In Uganda, concerts are required to conclude by midnight. However, some have been allowed to run significantly longer, especially in the presence of prominent political figures. When asked about Bruno’s concert, Kenzo stated that extending the event by one hour was simply a logical decision.

He explained that the young audience was lively and enthusiastic even at midnight. Ending the concert at that time would have been detrimental to their enjoyment, and being a fun-loving individual, he empathized with them. The Big Talent founder mentioned that as a presidential appointee, he can exercise presidential authority wherever he is.

“Truly, I’m a presidential appointee, and I can act as the President would wherever I find myself. So, during Bruno’s concert, I applied logic and common sense because the youths were energized and joyful. Stopping the concert would have been unfair to them. I wanted them to fully enjoy what they paid for,” he remarked.

It is worth mentioning that Kenzo was appointed as a Presidential advisor in creative arts last year. He also indicated that he intends to discuss with the President the possibility of lifting the curfew for a few hours, particularly in areas where there are no residents, as the main issue with the midnight curfew is noise pollution.
