Moses Sali aka Bebe Cool has announced the release of a new EP titled No Risk, scheduled to drop on June 12, 2026.
The announcement was made through the singer’s social media platforms, where the Gagamel Entertainment boss confirmed that the project will be released next week.
The upcoming release follows Bebe Cool’s 2025 album Break The Chains, which was released on May 30 last year and received widespread acclaim from critics and listeners alike.
The album showcased the veteran musician’s willingness to experiment with contemporary African sounds, blending Afro-electronic, Afrotech and Afro-pop influences while maintaining his signature style. It also performed strongly on streaming platforms and reinforced his position among Uganda’s most influential artists.
The release of No Risk comes at a time when Uganda’s music industry has experienced a relatively subdued first half of 2026, with national attention largely focused on political developments and fewer major music projects reaching the market.
Upon its release, No Risk will be available across major digital streaming platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, Boomplay and YouTube Music.
The project is expected to be one of the most closely watched Ugandan music releases of 2026 and could provide an early indication of the musical trends likely to shape the industry in the months ahead.
Bebe Cool (born Moses Ssali) is one of Uganda’s most iconic reggae and Afrobeats artists. Over a career spanning nearly three decades, he has dominated East African music with massive hits like “Love You Everyday” and “Wire Wire”, while also serving as a prominent cultural, philanthropic, and political figure.
He remains a defining and polarizing pillar of the Ugandan music industry, bringing three decades of influence that spans star-making, international collaborations, and showbiz branding. While his longevity is celebrated, his controversial claims about controlling the industry’s airplay and his outspoken nature often spark intense debate
Born in 1977, he rose to fame in the late 1990s as one of the pioneers of East African urban music, starting his career at the famous Ogopa Deejays label in neighboring Kenya
He is one of the most vocal celebrity supporters of President Yoweri Museveni and the NRM ruling party, actively encouraging fellow artists to back the president’s vision for Uganda’s development
He frequently supports health and education initiatives, including working as a Tuberculosis Ambassador.
As one of the first artists signed to Kenya’s legendary Ogopa Deejays in the late 1990s, Bebe Cool was instrumental in shaping modern East African pop. His work with the East African Bashment Crew paved the way for border-crossing hits.
He has consistently pushed for regional and global integration with tracks like “Mbozi Za Malwa” featuring Sauti Sol and “African Love” with Nigeria’s Yemi Alade.
