Bobi Wine has finally broken his silence on the long-standing comparisons between him and Jose Chameleone and Bebe Cool, who for years have been collectively referred to as Uganda’s “Big 3.”Speaking during rehearsals for an upcoming show, Bobi Wine downplayed the popular tag, saying it is selfish to think Ugandan music began with only their generation and also that he has outgrown that. He instead paid tribute to the late music legends Herman Basudde, Phily Lutaaya, and Paul Kafeero, noting that they were far greater and set the foundation upon which the current crop of artists built their careers.I think it is selfish to think that Ugandan music started with just us. We grew up seeing some artists who also learnt from others. I don’t look at it that way. The musician-turned-politician further distanced himself from the ‘Big 3’ legacy, insisting that his focus has never been about elevating himself but rather staying authentic.We were once in that age of praising and elevating ourselves, but we have grown. Nothing is more powerful on this earth than staying humble because with this, you will get all the respect. Music is not limited to only those you call the big three. I do not want to be big; I want to be real, and you should call me the real one. Bobi Wine has this to say about the Big Three debate.. says he outgrew that and now he should be referred to as a "real one". pic.twitter.com/tJvtjxonrY— MBU (@MBU) August 27, 2025The post Bobi Wine downplays “Big 3” legacy, honors Ugandan music pioneers appeared first on MBU.
