Sheebah Karungi, a singer, has admitted that she once adored her longtime nemesis Cinderella Sanyu, also known as Cindy.
Sheebah claims that when she decided to leave the dance group she had joined in 2007, Obsessions, she got in touch with Cindy and asked her to write a song for her.
“I was a fan of musician Sanyu Cindy. I looked for her and asked her to write me a song that I wanted producer Washington to work on,” said Sheebah while appearing on the NTV Mwasuze Mutya show this morning.
The song, titled “Ngenda Kunyenyeza,” reportedly failed because Sheebah was just beginning her solo career at the time.
“I had a lot of panic recording this song considering that I never sang much in the Obsessions,” she said.
She said she was “segregated” while she was with Obsessions.
“I was just a former karaoke performer, most of the girls in the group found me unfit to be among them. I wasn’t a priority and used to earn less or nothing at times,” she said.
Sheebah gained popularity after her 2014 hit single “Ice Cream” was released.
Cindy and Sheebah, meanwhile, have been waging a protracted battle for supremacy.
Their beef reached a boiling point in 2019 after Cindy dared Sheebah to a music battle, but the battle was never held.
