Bebe Cool is never known to be one person who would talk and say what he believes in regardless of what other people think about him, he has forever remained an ally to the current Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni and it has caused him some few shows both locally and internationally where he was heckled out of the stage for supporting the president openly.

It’s safe to say even Kanye West is somewhat getting some backlash from supporting American president Donald Trump openly and even wearing the MAGA hat publicly.

Kanye West who checked in Uganda with his family the other day is in Africa to finish his Yandhi album, and Bebe Cool wants a piece of that too.

Yandhi is the upcoming ninth studio album by American rapper Kanye West, scheduled for release on November 23, 2018. It was announced by West on his Instagram and Twitter on September 17, 2018.

Bebe Cool took to Facebook to write an open letter to Ye asking him to be featured on his album since he is in Uganda and Ye oughts to at least collaborate with African artistes, he would want to be a part of the artistes Kanye West should consider featuring on his ninth studio album, Yandhi.

“Thanking YE, formerly Kanye West and Kim for choosing Africa, mainly Uganda to visit and record your new music album. I want to take this opportunity to thank you Kanye West together with your wife and management team for choosing Africa, but mainly Uganda as one of the countries you will visit and record your album. Am so proud of my country and despite its small size and slow but steady development, it has a lot to offer by nature like receptive people, wildlife, great sights, and sounds.” Bebe Cool said in part of his social media post beseeching Kanye West to work with him on his Yandhi album.

“At the moment, am in your home country too for a business trip but the main reason for my post is to request you to feature me on your current recording of a new album.” he added, “As an African open-minded and know what I want artist, let me be the first one to openly make this request without any fear because it’s within a lot of young people in Africa to know what they want but fear to try, or make a move and by me doing this, my hope is it will inspire them to always confront challenges head-on. And that if they fail, they would at least have tried other than failing to try. I will understand if it doesn’t happen but at least I did not shy away from what I am sure all African artists would want me inclusive. Otherwise, I will be honored if my request is granted but in the meantime have fun in Uganda because it is the Pearl of Africa. Once again you are welcome to M7’s baby Uganda Kanye and Kim. God bless you both” he concluded his long social media post

I am a Pan-Afrikanist to the core and love to let the world know what they are missing in Africa. I might do that through music and some interesting posts from time to time so please bare with me.

I will always be real though, that's a guarantee.
