Singer Irene Ntale has surprised fans by publicly endorsing Vinka’s maiden concert, despite years of reported tension between the two artistes.
Vinka is set to stage her first major concert this Friday at Lugogo Cricket Oval, with excitement building among fans and industry players ahead of the highly anticipated show.
Among those rallying fans to attend is none other than Ntale, who took to social media to throw her support behind the Swangz Avenue singer.
“This Friday, we’re ALL showing up and showing out for Vinka at Vinka Loud in Concert at Lugogo!! 🔥🔥 Miss it at your own risk!” she partly wrote.
From Reported Beef to Concert Support
Ntale's endorsement has raised eyebrows given the history between the two singers.
Before making her own name as an artiste, Vinka reportedly worked as Ntale's manager at Swangz Avenue.
Over the years, however, reports of tension between the two emerged, with claims that their relationship deteriorated after Vinka's rise within the label.
There were even allegations that Vinka played a role in Ntale's eventual departure from Swangz Avenue, although the two have largely kept the details of their reported fallout private.
Ntale Puts Music First
Her latest message appears to put those old tensions aside, at least publicly, as she encourages Ugandans to support Vinka's major career milestone.
For Vinka, the endorsement from a former colleague and reported rival adds another interesting chapter to her journey ahead of Vinka Loud in Concert.
