Musician Joseph Mayanja, popularly known as Jose Chameleone, has claimed that fellow music stars Bebe Cool and Bobi Wine fear him musically because they understand his influence and abilities in the industry.

Chameleone, who has been competing with the two musicians for more than two decades, said they have personally experienced how difficult it is to match his musical strength.

He challenged anyone who doubts his abilities to consult Bebe Cool and Bobi Wine, claiming that the two once joined forces in an attempt to outcompete him but failed.

“If you think I am joking, go and ask Bebe Cool or Bobi Wine. Those two understand how big I am musically. They actually tried to combine forces to beat me musically, and failed. All musicians are afraid of me,” he said.

Despite the rivalry, Chameleone maintained that he respects both musicians for their musical contributions to Uganda’s entertainment industry.
