Ugandan singer Tip Swizzy, real name Nicholas Mukalazi, has confirmed that his relationship with fellow musician Eddy Kenzo remains distant, revealing that the two have not seen or spoken to each other since their fallout.
During an interview with Sanyuka TV, Tip Swizzy reflected on their broken friendship, explaining that although he was once angry about how things ended, he has since moved on.
However, the singer made it clear that moving past the disagreement does not mean he is interested in rebuilding their friendship.
“It is true we have never seen each other ever since we separated. But at this point, I do not have any issues with him. I was angry before but now I’m fine. I just don’t need to look for him or make friendships with him again. I just see him from afar. I wish him well. I do not have issues with him on my end,” he said.
The two musicians previously worked together and built a connection that attracted considerable attention from music fans. Their collaboration was particularly popular among listeners who appreciated seeing them work as a team.
However, their relationship reportedly deteriorated after Eddy Kenzo removed Tip Swizzy and Geosteady from Big Talent Entertainment.
According to Tip Swizzy, the decision marked a turning point because he felt that the trust they had built during their working relationship had been broken.
He explained that their partnership had largely been based on mutual trust rather than formal contractual arrangements, particularly because he was still young and inexperienced in the business side of the music industry.
“People loved us a lot when we were still working together and he told them he was no longer working with me. That is where the problem came from. They loved the collaboration of him and me. By then I was still young and wasn’t into the thing of contracts so it was purely trust between us,” he explained.
Despite the disappointment surrounding their separation, Tip Swizzy acknowledged that his experience working with Kenzo was not entirely negative.
He credited the singer with teaching him valuable lessons, saying he could not ignore the positive experiences simply because their relationship eventually fell apart.
“There are some things I learnt from him; he may have done me wrong but he did some good things too. I cannot speak ill about him because even his wrong side taught me a lesson. I won’t say anything bad about him but I’m not inspired by him because of how he behaves,” he added.
His comments reveal a relationship that has moved beyond its earlier anger but has not returned to friendship. While Tip Swizzy says he wishes Kenzo well, he appears comfortable maintaining distance rather than attempting to repair their past connection.
