June 16, 2020, marked a new chapter in the careers of gospel singers Bahati and Willy Paul, as they put their long-standing feud behind them.
The two musicians have been at odds since the beginning of their music careers, frequently clashing at music awards ceremonies.
However, Bahati has revealed that they have since reconciled their differences and are now close friends.
“Huyu bro yangu Willy nampenda sana, hata juzi nilikuwa na yeye. Ni ufala tuu anakuwanga nayo, we talk every week, tunatembelenanga studio and all that. There is no beef, hiyo ilikuwa utoto ya kitambo,” Bahati said.
Willy Paul's recent decision to transition from gospel to secular music has not affected their friendship, with Bahati stating that he is still a gospel artiste at heart.
“The song Wanani is not a gospel song but a love song. But that does not mean I am slowly shifting to the other side,” he said.
