King Michael recalls fight with Chameleone’s crew over shoes – Sqoop

Ugandan singer King Michael has shared a bizarre story from his early days in the music industry, recalling how a night out in Kampala ended with members of Jose Chameleone’s crew allegedly forcefully taking one of his designer shoes.

According to King Michael, the incident happened years ago at the once-popular Kampala nightclub Club Angenoir during what was supposed to be a routine night of fun and celebration.

The singer said the drama began even before he arrived at the club. He later learned that some members of Chameleone’s team had reportedly told the music star that King Michael would be wearing a pair of shoes they believed belonged to him.

“Chameleone’s boys told him that I was wearing his shoe and that it was supposed to be his,” King Michael recalled. “Chameleone asked them, ‘What shoe?’ They told him that I was going to be wearing it that evening at Angenoir.”

Unaware that anything unusual was unfolding, King Michael said he arrived at the club dressed in what he believed was his best outfit for the night. “I came to Angenoir wearing my new shoes, with chains and everything,” he said.

However, the mood changed when he approached Chameleone to greet him. Instead of the usual friendly exchange, King Michael said the singer seemed unusually focused on his footwear. “His mind was all on my shoes,” he explained.

Although Chameleone reportedly complimented the shoes, King Michael believes he unknowingly escalated the situation when he stamped the shoe on the floor while showing them off. “The mistake I did was stamping the shoe on the floor,” he said.

According to him, the gesture appeared to provoke Chameleone, who allegedly instructed members of his entourage to get the shoe for him. “He went and told his boys that they should do everything possible to get one shoe for him,” King Michael claimed.

The singer said he only realised what was happening hours later as he was leaving the club intoxicated. “I was leaving the club all drunk and the boys came to take my one shoe,” he said.

King Michael recalls that a scuffle broke out outside the club as he tried to resist. “I couldn’t give it up easily. A fight ensued, but they overpowered me and took one shoe.”In what he describes as the strangest part of the story, King Michael claims the captured shoe was later placed in Chameleone’s vehicle.

“Chameleone put it in his Escalade and drove around town with it,” he said.
