When Jazz Safari’s Tshaka Mayanja insinuated that Bebe Cool is not a good writer, it rattled several of Bebe Cool’s fans and the big man himself. Tshaka alleges that Bebe Cool’s hit song “Love You Everyday” was written by Tusker Project Fame winner Esther, and Bebe Cool merely did the voicing something that did not sit well with the singer.
He posted:
The “Love You Everyday” singer quickly took to social media to slam the claims. Bebe cool Posted:
Just to correct Shaka mayanja of jazz safari,if u want to know who wrote love u every day,at your age,u should not nose around since u know who sang it and u have his number,call him and ask otherwise stop misleading people by under looking BEBECOOL .Micheal fingers wrote half the song and I did half and mark u,u are in for surprises if u thought u new me well.THAT SHOWS HOW BAD HEARTED UGANDANS CAN BE.Instead of appreciating an artist,they will look for things just to bring them down.LETS SAY ESTER WROTE LOVE U EVERY DAY,IF SHE SANG IT,WOULD U HAVE CARED ABOUT IT OR LOVED IT?GROW UP.LOVE YOU EVERY DAY
Despite the backlash, Tshaka Mayanja has prompted Bebe Cool to give credit where its due and still insists the smash hit—“Love You Everyday” was written by Esther. Tshaka responded to Bebe Cool in a post that read:
Alrighty, Alrighty. All ye Bebe Cool fans. Hold your fire. Even the best artists in history had and have teams of songwriters. It’s not new neither is it some sort of disrespect to an artist. So please, read and understand the gist of a post before sending me nonsensical inbox messages.
‘Love You Every Day’ is a good song, good video too. Written by Estah, Produced and arranged by Michael Fingaz at Fenon Studios, performed and voiced by Bebe Cool. Credit where it’s due.
