Ugandan singer and songwriter Fyno UG has questioned the level of praise surrounding King Saha, saying he does not consider the established musician as extraordinary as some people portray him.
Speaking during a TikTok Live session, Fyno acknowledged King Saha’s vocal abilities but described him as an ordinary musician rather than an artist he personally looks up to.
“He’s just a musician like any other to me. He’s simply a good artist and that’s it, nothing more,” Fyno said.
The singer maintained that although King Saha is currently enjoying a strong position in Uganda’s music scene, he sees no reason to give him excessive praise simply because others expect it.
“He’s currently at the top but I won’t praise him like how you want me to. He’s not special. I’m also a great artist and I can’t bow down to him,” he added.
Fyno also made it clear that his comments were not intended to establish a musical rivalry between the two artists.
He explained that his focus remains on entertaining his own fans rather than competing with fellow musicians or measuring his success against theirs.
His remarks bring another outspoken opinion into conversations about recognition, status and respect within Uganda’s music industry.
While Fyno recognises King Saha as a talented performer who is currently at the top of the local scene, he is equally firm about maintaining his own sense of artistic confidence.
For him, appreciating another musician’s talent does not mean placing that person above himself.
