Musicians in Uganda have always been pitted against Tanzania’s Diamond Platinumz whose musical success has allowed him to establish several businesses, buy posh rides and houses. He is touted as the richest in East Africa right now, ahead of Chameleone and Bebe Cool who have been singing longer than him.
Bebe Cool, however, doesn’t subscribe to the narrative that Diamond is better than him financially.
“That boy goes to dealers to hire cars for showing off. People here are simply not informed, but I’m richer. I have two houses and they are better than his. I saw it on MTV, and it had poor furnishing. Those who saw mine and his can tell you,” Bebe Cool said in an interview.
Chameleone also recently lashed at those who draw comparisons. He said he has two houses in the USA and can’t be compared with a singer who has none there.
