In his words, “If Kuami Eugene succeeds in music or in life again, I will quit music. For me, I’m sure he’s probably gay. He’s not a gangster; he only makes songs for women.”
The “Biibi Besi” rapper further alleged that Kuami Eugene’s current popularity is partly due to his (Yogot’s) influence, claiming he helped the singer gain recognition in the streets through their collaboration.

Kwame Yogot also accused Kuami Eugene of selling his song to a political party without his consent, describing it as a betrayal that nearly ruined his career.
“He giving my song to a political party is like selling my career. That’s what the boy wanted to do, and I would never like him. If I see Kuami Eugene and he greets me, I will bite off his nose. I hate him that much, and nobody can intervene,” he added passionately.

The feud between Kwame Yogot and Kuami Eugene appears to go deeper than creative differences. While their 2021 collaboration on “Biibi Besi” was widely celebrated for its catchy hook and vibrant energy, tensions between the two have since escalated into a personal conflict.
Despite Kuami Eugene’s continued success in Ghana’s music industry, Kwame Yogot’s latest comments suggest that any chance of reconciliation between the pair remains unlikely.
