Inspiring a New Generation of Artists
The album’s release is not just a personal milestone for Bebe Cool; it’s a statement about the future of Ugandan music.
He has described Break The Chains as a metaphor for breaking barriers and pushing through the “glass ceiling” that has often limited the global reach of Ugandan artists.
“Break the Chains is about cracking the glass ceiling to take Ugandan music to the table most local artists believe we are not welcome,” Bebe Cool stated during his TikTok session.
By collaborating with fresh producers, engineers, and tapping into Uganda’s rising Afrobeats scene, he aims to inspire young artists to take bold steps in their careers, even when the journey is uncertain.
