• Singer Lutty Neika slammed rival Kapeke for allegedly making disrespectful remarks about previous performers during a recent live show.
• Neika claimed he is superior to Kapeke in music, intellect, and looks while demanding a public apology for the insults.
• The Anaconda singer warned Kapeke that there will be consequences if the musician fails to take responsibility for his behavior.

Ugandan singer Lutty Neika has expressed his anger at fellow musician Kapeke, accusing him of disrespecting artists who performed before him at a recent show.

Lutty Neika claims Kapeke took to the stage and made negative remarks about musicians who had entertained the audience before his performance. Lutty Neika was reportedly among the artists targeted by the comments, which he says he found insulting and unnecessary.

The singer has since questioned why Kapeke would choose to attack his fellow musicians, insisting that he has always concentrated on his craft rather than involving himself in industry beefs.

According to Lutty Neika, he considers himself superior to Kapeke in several aspects, including music, intellect and physical appearance, and sees no reason why his fellow singer would attempt to belittle him publicly.

“I am better than him musically, intellectually and physically. In every aspect, I am a better artist,” Lutty Neika said, expressing confidence in his abilities.

The Anaconda singer further questioned why anyone would deliberately disrespect him, arguing that he has never made it his business to attack other musicians because he is focused on developing his music career.

Lutty Neika also revealed that he had previously heard stories about the negative side of Uganda’s music industry but had largely ignored them because he did not consider such issues relevant to him.

However, he now feels personally affected by Kapeke’s alleged remarks and wants the singer to take responsibility for his actions.

“I am very angry with him, and he needs to apologise to me. Otherwise, he will not like what happens next,” Lutty Neika warned.

The singer also questioned the influence Kapeke has on his fans, wondering what valuable lessons those who idolise him could learn from his conduct. He maintained that he sees little worth emulating in the fellow musician’s alleged behaviour.

For now, Lutty Neika insists that an apology is necessary to address the disagreement, although it remains unclear whether Kapeke will respond to the accusations or offer the apology being demanded.

The latest exchange adds to ongoing conversations about respect, competition and relationships among Uganda’s musicians, particularly when artists share the same stage.
