Philly Bongole’s family has expressed disappointment with Eddy Kenzo following his demeaning statements against the legendary singer.
Kenzo recently said he is better than Philly, and that redoing the Born in Africa song was not to gain mileage but to give it a bigger reach.
His statements have drawn widespread criticism. And now Philly’s family wants Kenzo to retract his declaration.
According to a family representative, Uncle Bean, Kenzo didn’t seek permission to re-do the song. He should humble himself and worship the late because he laid the foundation for him.
“As a family, we are not happy with Eddy Kenzo’s statements. Like any other person, he made a mistake but the problem is that he hasn’t come out to clear the air. We don’t need an apology but we want him to take back the words he said,” says Uncle Bean, a representative of the family.
