Bebe Cool’s new album will be debuting on streaming platforms this Friday- May 30th.

And the reviews continue to come in.But these are not reviews by industry hatchos and pundits, these are by select artists that exclusively listened to the album.

The latest review came in from Elijah Kitaka.Known for bangers such as Nothing, Dawa, and recently Ekyange, Kitaka said Bebe Cool’s new journey on Breaking the Chains is inspirational.
During an exclusive listening session, Kitaka said the album made him appreciate a different side of Bebe Cool, one who’s trying to tap into different markets without forgetting his roots.
“As I listened to the album, I got to listen to another side of Bebe Cool, his passion and originality, he has a song where he does a thing that stays on your mind,” he says.

Kitaka also says that what Bebe Cool is doing, trying to make music for a global marketing is an inspiration to them as artists that are just starting out.

He also notes that Bebe Cool delivers a quality album which stays true to some Ugandan progressions, something he believes local artists can pick up.

Kitaka acknowledges his surprise that Bebe Cool called him to listen to his new material considering the fact that as a new artist, he’s greatly inspired and influenced by Bebe Cool.
“As an upcoming artist trying to come up in the industry, I’m happy that he’s recognized me,” he says.

Bebe Cool has teased his upcoming album for more than a year.
It was at the end of 2023 that the artist traveled to Nigeria to put together songs that could end up on the album he aptly said was called Break the Chains.

For a bigger part of 2024, very little information was provided about the project until the end of the year.
He dropped the first single off the album, Circumference and followed it up with Motivation in February.

He would later hint on dates the album would be released. As the release date gets closer, we are getting to learn more about the album through people who have listened to it already.

Most of them influencial Ugandans, ranging from A-Pass, Juliana and Elijah Kitaka, they have been giving the audience a glimpse of what will land on the streaming platforms on Friday.

The album mainly produced between Nigeria and Uganda is highly anticipated thanks to the disruptive nature it has been marketed.

Much as details of guests on the album or number of songs have been kept a secret, most Ugandans have been able to second guess Joshua Baraka will be on the album since a video of the two artistes in studio surfaced online few months ago.

Break the Chains will be premiered on streaming platforms in the wee hours of Friday morning, though, a select number of fans and artists will listen to the album on Thursday, in a special listeners party.

Break the Chains will be available on YouTube Music, Tidal, Apple Music, Audio Mack, Deezer and Spotify among other platforms.
