Bebe Cool Unveils ‘Circumference,’ First Single from His Highly Anticipated Album Break The Chains
Ugandan music icon Bebe Cool has officially released Circumference, the lead single from his forthcoming album, Break The Chains. The Gagamel boss has described the album as a transformative project that could redefine his career while elevating the Ugandan music industry on the global stage.
A Fresh Afrobeat Vibe
Circumference leans heavily into the Nigerian Afrobeat sound—a genre that has taken the African music scene by storm. The influence is evident, thanks to the song’s co-writer, Nigerian songwriter Ekpe Promise, who worked alongside Bebe Cool. Production credits go to renowned Nigerian producer Philip Chukwuka Ahaiwe and Ugandan producer Kagoda George Bush, popularly known as Bushington.
Bebe Cool’s decision to embrace this Afrobeat vibe highlights his willingness to experiment and challenge himself musically. The song reflects his passion for creating fresh sounds while keeping an international appeal.
Mixed Reactions from Fans
As with many of Bebe Cool’s releases, Circumference has sparked varied reactions among fans. Some listeners have applauded the track for showcasing a new side of the artist and its modern, global feel. Others, however, feel the song doesn’t stray far enough from Bebe Cool’s signature style, making it less groundbreaking than anticipated.
“This track shows Bebe Cool’s versatility and his ambition to appeal to an international audience,” one fan commented online. Meanwhile, another remarked, “I expected something more innovative, but it still feels like the same Bebe Cool.”

Circumference serves as a teaser for what fans can expect from Break The Chains. The album promises a fusion of diverse influences, pushing the boundaries of Ugandan music and opening doors for greater cross-border collaborations.
