Sheebah Karungi Accuses Former Manager Jeff Kiwa of Paying Bloggers to Attack Her


Ugandan songstress Sheebah Karungi has launched a fiery attack on her former manager Jeff Kiwa, accusing him of orchestrating an online smear campaign against her through paid bloggers.

Speaking at a press conference ahead of her highly anticipated “Return of The Queen” concert, Sheebah addressed the growing tension between her and Team No Sleep (TNS), the label she once called home.

The rift, she revealed, has been fueled by a dispute over the ownership of a song titled “Nobody”. Both Sheebah and TNS artists claim rights to the track, with Sheebah insisting that Jeff Kiwa “stole” it from her and has been using bloggers to escalate the feud.

“Even when you attack those that came before you, it will only give you 15 minutes of fame, but it won’t secure you a permanent place in the industry,” Sheebah warned. “There’s no point going to the studio and stealing my songs.”

She made it clear that the song would be released when she deems fit, reaffirming her ownership:

“Last time I checked, you said you were the pro. I don’t know what you were looking for in the amateur’s library. I promise you, that song will be released because it is my song.”

Sheebah also offered a word of caution to Ava Peace, one of Jeff Kiwa’s current signees who has openly admired her in the past.

“Everyone walks their own journey; there are no shortcuts. You might look at Sheebah yet you could have done better. Stop focusing on my path—you’ll only lose yours.”

The “Return of The Queen” concert is set to mark Sheebah’s big stage comeback, and with this latest war of words, the music industry is watching closely to see how the drama unfolds.
