Kamba gospel artist Stephen Kasolo has opened up on his 2-year beef with fellow artist Ringtone Apoko.

Speaking during the launch of Charitable Foundation, The 'Kya Kya Ngai' hitmaker said he hated Ringtone's drama.

"How people take Ringtone is not who he is. He is a nice guy but when you talk to him you might assume he is proud of that he has a bad ego. That is his nature and there is nothing we can do about it.

We are now good and there is no beef anymore. He loves God. He defends the gospel of Christ and so he deserves my respect."

Kasolo added that with time he has learnt to tolerate Ringtone's drama.

"I hated his drama. There was a time he also threatened me and that is what made me assume he is a bad person."

A few months ago Kasolo came under fire after a video of him threatening to strangle his daughter went viral.

In the video that was posted on Kasolo's social media, Kasolo threatened to kill his daughter after she broke a water bottle.

He told his daughter 'Nitakunyonga' while demonstrating it to her. He pressed his daughter to repeat the same words.

The video sparked outrage on social media platforms, forcing the Kamba artist to issue a public apology.

He said he did not mean to harm the child.

“Praise God my fans? I want to take this opportunity to apologise to my baby and all our fans for the video which is going viral.

I never meant any harm to my daughter and I never will, nevertheless it has brought a lot of tension on social media. Kindly forgive me this will never happen again am sorry even before God,” Kasolo wrote on social media.
