The moment we have all been waiting for, the feud between artist Kevin Bahati and Willy Paul is finally over.

The long-running rivalry between the two Kenyan music stars has been heating up for years, with fans taking sides and taking to social media to voice their opinions.

However, the most recent conflagration, which took place in 2021, was terrible with Willy Paul being accused of allegedly sexually assaulting Diana Marua.

This came after he had released a song called 'Diana' on his album. But in yesterday's press conference on Friday, Bahati has finally set the record straight saying that there is no more bad blood between the two.

"Who said I haven't forgiven him? I never said I was angry with him anywhere," Bahati explained.

In fact, the former candidate for the Mathare parliamentary seat went on to reveal that not only is he meeting Willy Paul, but the two have also been in constant communication for several months.

The feud between Bahati and Willy Paul goes back to their gospel music days. When they were nominated for awards in the same categories, fans started to take sides, with each side claiming that the other was more talented than the other.

Diana, for her part, accused Willy Paul of sexually assaulting her, prompting the singer to respond with a video of her own, emotionally explaining her side of the story.

The saga finally came to an end when Willy Paul took legal action against Diana Marua, and the court ordered her to remove the video and stop talking about Willy Paul in the future.

And now, according to Bahati, it seems that the two have finally put their differences behind them.
