The Ugandan music scene just got a whole lot spicier. An-Known, one of the rising stars, has hit back at veteran singer Zex Bilangilangi's recent comments about his and Liam Voice's singing style. Buckle up, because this is a he-said-she-said situation that's turning heads.
It all started a few days ago. Zex, during an interview with Mr. Henrie on Galaxy TV, was asked about his thoughts on the new wave of singers, specifically An-Known and Liam Voice. Let's just say Zex didn't mince words. He bluntly stated that these young artists "don't sing but they just cry thinking they are singing." Ouch! Zex went on to emphasize the importance of setting a good example for the younger generation by showcasing genuine singing.
These comments clearly hit a nerve with An-Known. He recently took to social media to express his disappointment and defend himself. An-Known made it clear that he believes in his talent and the progress he's making in his career. He seemed genuinely surprised to be targeted by someone he considers to be facing his own musical challenges.
"I don't understand how someone tells me to sing well saying I just cry in studio yet he is the worst,"
An-Known fired back. He didn't hold back on Zex, calling his music noise and claiming he doesn't even know his songs! Talk about throwing shade! An-Known finished his rebuttal by confidently stating that he's more talented and achieving more success than "so many artistes" out there.
So, what exactly is going on here? Is this a genuine critique from a seasoned artist looking to guide the next generation, or is there a hint of jealousy towards the rising stars? An-Known certainly seems to think it's the latter.
This whole situation has fans buzzing. Some side with Zex, believing his comments were meant to be constructive criticism to push these young singers to improve. Others are firmly in An-Known's corner, applauding him for standing up for himself and his music. The internet is flooded with comments dissecting every word, debating who's right and who's wrong.
But let's take a step back from the online brawl. This isn't just about two singers throwing insults. It's a deeper conversation about the evolution of music, the pressure to inspire younger generations, and the ever-changing landscape of the Ugandan music industry.
Here's what we can all agree on: healthy competition breeds innovation. Perhaps this exchange, as heated as it is, will push both An-Known and Zex to create even better music. Who knows, maybe they'll even collaborate someday and surprise everyone.
In the meantime, one thing's for sure: Ugandan music fans are in for a treat. This war of words has only just begun, and with both artists passionate about their craft, we can expect some fire tracks coming our way. So, grab your headphones, sit back, and enjoy the show!
