Bobi Wine’s attempt to support arch rival Bebe Cool and get the MAMAs votes to Uganda painfully backfired on him and instead, unearthed their long buried beef.
In support, Bobi had asked his fans to vote for Bebe Cool saying; “I am encouraging my fans to vote for Bebe Cool because we want Ugandan music to go far, no matter who gets to benefit. He is ill-mannered and if Ugandans show him support, maybe he will learn to be well-behaved.”
But his gesture was countered with brash comments from Bebe Cool.
Besides saying that he did not need any votes from Bobi Wine’s fans, he went ahead to claim that he (Bebe Cool) was a drug addict, illiterate and a philanderer.
“Now this music failure comes up to say I am ill-mannered, you are a married man, still having sex with any gal in the clubs and bringing your wife and kids. You don’t have good music. You can’t speak English, and you call a big name nominated in #mama.mtv.com awards and with great music like ‘Go Mama’, ill- mannered?”

Bebe asked Bobi’s fans not to vote for him lest he loses.
