Speaking to Bongo 5 during a recent interview, Tanzanian songbird Vanessa Mdee revealed that sharing ideas with her bae and fellow artist Juma Jux is the key ingredient to making them a power couple.
The petite artiste who’s currently promoting her album ‘In Love and Money,’ described Juma as her bestie who made the album possible.
‘’Of course he is my best friend. Ni mtu napenda na napenda kuwa karibu naye na tunashare ideas nyingi sana so hicho ni kitu cha kwanza so unampoteza mtu ambaye umemzoea sana and of ofcourse it’s not the same. Pia kuna ile ushauri. Unampigia alafu mnashauriana. In fact tour hii hingekuepo, of course na kutengenza pesa kama tunavyofanya saa hizi, so in love and money’’ she said.
The couple had a rough patch in 2017 after rumors that Mdee cheated on Juma Jux emerged. The pretty artiste refuted those claims stating that their breakup had to do with communication.
‘’Sometimes I would send him (Jux) a text message at 6am but he would reply at 12 noon. If the platform of sending the text was WhatsApp, I would see two blue ticks on our chat thread, which indicate the recipient of the message actually read the text and at what time he did so.
Most of the instances, he read the texts a few minutes after I had sent them. Sometimes I would enquire if he had eaten, and he would give me a curt response. Such habits communicated that our relationship was undergoing a turbulent phase,” said Vanessa Mdee at the time speaking on Tanzania’s Chill na Sky show.
It was at that point the Tanzanian beauty decided to call it quits after she felt Jux no longer needed her in his life.
A year later, the couple rekindled their love.
