How Bebe Cool Nearly Lost His Daughter Beata

Gagamel boss Bebe Cool left revellers at his ‘Break The Chains’ listening party at Noni Vie emotional after he narrated how his teenage daughter, Beata Ssali, almost lost her life last year and needed a life-saving emergency medical attention.
The singer said that at the time his daughter suffered this medical scare, he was in Nigeria recording this album.
He even thought of aborting the project despite having footed all the expenses. However, he couldn’t get a direct, quick flight back to the country. Fortunately, seven doctors took over the situation about an hour later and worked on her, eventually saving her life.
“I recall almost putting a stop to this project to return to my daughter because it seemed she might lose her life. I had already paid for all the project expenses, but I thought about coming home to be with her. Sadly, there were no direct flights back to Uganda, but thankfully, seven doctors showed up after the incident and worked on her until she recovered,” he shared.

The Wire Wire singer even revealed that one of the songs on this album, known as Home, was recorded on the very day of the unfortunate incident. It was a tribute to his daughter, and he sang part of it.
Meanwhile, a lot of celebrities such as Juliana Kanyomozi, Azawi, Laika Music, Joshua Baraka, Benon Mugumbya, Alien Skin, among others, all turned up for this event. Bebe Cool featured Nigerian female powerhouse, female singer Yemi Alade, and Uganda’s budding singer, Joshua Baraka, on some of the 16 tracks on this album.

Recho Rey Breaks Norms: Marriage & Kids Aren’t Part of My Journey

Local female rapper Mirembe Rachel, known as Recho Rey, has committed to never becoming pregnant or having children.
In a recent interview on a local radio show, the artist expressed that marriage does not appeal to her at all.
She feels the same way about having children. Recho Rey shared that she has never experienced any maternal instincts. While she wishes well for and respects all mothers, it is not something she has ever considered. She also mentioned that people have often told her she will eventually change her mind, but as she gets older, the idea becomes even less appealing to her.
“Honestly, I don’t see myself ever getting married because it’s not in my plans. I have no desire for it. It’s the same when someone asks if I’ll have kids. To be truthful, I have never had any nurturing instincts since I was young. I admire and respect those who choose to become parents, but it’s simply not something that interests me. Many people have suggested that I will outgrow this feeling, but the more I mature, the less attractive it seems to me,” she stated.
However, social media users quickly pointed out that fellow artist Sheebah Karungi shares a similar mindset, despite currently being a mother of one and often declaring that motherhood is the best gift she has ever received.
As a result, many believe it is only a matter of time before Recho Rey finds herself in a similar situation and looks back without regret.
