"And then for Sheebah I passed it by her, but she didn't buy the idea, so it's Winnie and Vinka that agreed to work with me on that project," Karole Kasita recalled her conversation with Karungi while talking to Tuff B on NBS TV.
When Tuff B asked her if Sheebah refused to join her for the remix, Kasita said: "I just passed it by her, like I gave her an idea. She didn't refuse. She wasn't in a position to do it."
Kasita was able to remix the song with Winnie Nwagi and Vinka and it became a huge success, prompting her to host her maiden concert.
Its video, now at 4.1 million views, was the second most viewed Ugandan song on YouTube in 2023. The video was filmed by Aaronaire, real name Aaron Mutumba, who also directed the videos of 10 over 10 by Azawi, Okwepicha by Gravity, Believe by Dax Vibez and Vinka, Ndabula by Carol Nantongo & B2C, Ndi Wuwo by Elijah Kitaka and Tonyt by Rema Namakula.
The remix was co-produced by Artin Problem and Chemical Beatz.
Problem, better known as Artin Pro, also produced other top jams in 2023, including Bwe Paba by Sheebah & Fik Fameica, Take It Slow by Vyper Ranking featuring Winnie Nwagi, My Guy by BigTril featuring Fik Fameica, Njagala by Lydia Jazmine, Pose by Kateleya & Kandle featuring Fik Fameica and Binkolelele by Kateleya & Kandle.
Chemical Beatz produced Beautiful Mami by Rickman and Ebbaluwa by Irene Ntale & John Blaq. Meanwhile, Vinka, Kasita, and Nwagi teamed up again to do an acoustic version of the remix and it's also doing pretty well on YouTube.
