The music industry streets are still hot after upcoming artist Aaronx nearly found himself cancelled for throwing shade—intentionally at Uganda’s music Big Size, Bebe Cool but after the backlash he has now humbled himself and said SORRY.
It all started when Aaronx sat down with YouTuber Sheila Price and made some rather spicy comments about Bebe Cool’s latest album. In the now-viral clips, Aaronx seemed to downplay Bebe’s legendary status and critique his music like a fearless judge on East African Idols.
Fans didn’t take it lightly. Bebe Cool’s fanbase (aka Gagamel Army) came for Aaronx with full firepower, calling him disrespectful, ungrateful, and even saying “clout chasing will end in tears.”
Now facing serious social media heat, Aaronx has done the only logical thing: apologize before his music career gets finished before it starts.
“I’ve seen clips circulating from my recent interview with Sheila Price, and I feel the need to clarify,” he wrote in a statement. “My statements have been blown out of context… I have the utmost respect for Bebe Cool. He is a true icon and a pillar of our music industry.”
Aaronx blamed “camera excitement” for his poorly delivered thoughts and said he didn’t mean any harm. In his words: “If any part of that conversation came off as disrespectful or offensive, I sincerely apologize. That was never my intention.”
He even admitted that as a young artist, he has a lot to learn from Bebe Cool’s journey—a statement that seems to have cooled down some tempers online.
As of now, Bebe Cool has not publicly responded to Aaronx’s apology, but fans are watching closely to see whether the Gagamel boss will forgive, ignore, or use this moment for a proper lyrical clapback.
