Rating 2023 in concert

IN CONCERT: 2023 offered us so many concerts and it is no lie to say that most of these events were successful in terms of numbers and only a few have attracted small crowds. The other interesting bit is that unlike before, Soul and RnB concerts took centre stage, bringing a fresh feel to the show industry. Despite the many events we have had this year, only a few have made it to the top list as Isaac Ssejjombwe writes, in no order.

Cindy-Sheebah battle

After several months of anticipation, the highly-anticipated female music battle happened at Kololo Airstrip on September 15.

This was a battle for supremacy between Cinderella Sanyu and Sheebah Karungi with Victoria University as the main sponsor. Besides that, it was the first time the university was investing in an entertainment show that many regarded the show of the year. Many had tried to pull this off but they had failed and to the Vice Chancellor Lawrence Muganga, they deserved credit for this.

“I think we deserve credit for even attempting to bring these two together; because as far as I know, they do not see eye to eye,” he said. “Who would have thought that we would ever see Sheebah here and Cindy there battling? Bringing them to the same stage in itself is a big achievement.”

Both camps came prepared for the show with their camps in full gear to rally their respective artiste. Some came dressed in Team Cindy (Cindycates) T-shirts while the opposing team came dressed in Team Sheebah (Sheebaholics). Each camp also had their emcees for the night, with Kasuku as the mediator.

The battle had rules and regulations which each camp had to follow. Each artiste was supposed to be on stage for 20 minutes performing songs of her choice before giving the rival camp an opportunity to also perform.

They both made grand entrances, performed their lungs out, impressed their respective camps.

At the end of the night, no winner was announced as both artistes excelled in different aspects but besides that, they walked away victorious because they were paid handsomely for this battle and even made extra cash from the extra battle shows that happened in several regions before they took the battle abroad.
