‘I Wrote Kcee’s Biggest Songs For Free To Save His Dying Career’ – Harrysong Fires Back

‘Samankwe’ exponent, Harrysong, has denied claims by his former label, 5star music, that he breached the terms of his contract with them when he walked away to start his own gig some months ago.

Now running his company, Alter Plate, Harrysong said that it was not true that he was desperate to join 5star as claimed by the label yesterday, explaining that it was indeed, Kcee that begged him to help ‘salvage his dying career’.

Harrysong also denied that he was arrested by the police last Friday, explaining that he was merely invited to make some clarifications at the Onikan Police Station, Lagos..

His media aide wrote, “ It was 8am and policemen acting on the instruction of the Assistant Inspector General of Police in Onikan, stormed our hotel room to invite Harrysong over for questioning. As a law abiding citizen with nothing to fear, we got dressed up and went to the AIG’s office. On getting there, we were greeted by the presence of a haggard looking young man in cheap suit, identified as Five Star Music’s lawyer. As against the kangaroo statement released by Five Star Music, Harrysong did not at any time approach anyone or company to sign him; it was Kcee (who) approached Harrysong on bended knees to help salvage his dying career after he fell out with his then partner (Presh). As much as Harrysong loved to help him out in that time of need, it is worthy of note that Kcee is talentless and knows next to nothing about music. Harrysong had a running contract with Questionmark Records, but out of desperation, Kcee and Five Star Music were prepared to pay off Kelvin Luciano in their quest to have Harrysong at all cost. It should be recalled that Harrysong succeeded in recreating Kcee’s sound, as he wrote and co-produced hits including Had it been I know, Okpekete, Limpopo, Pull Over and other songs that defined the Kcee that everyone now knows and celebrates today, all pro bono. For what it’s worth, Harrysong’s dealing with Five Star Music was with the clause that he would be left to pursue his career whenever he deemed it fit. For the records, Altarplate has come to stay and the general public can do business with Harrysong and Alterplate management. ”

The last has definitely not been heard of this unfolding drama as both parties’ initial attempts to handle the separation issues amicably has failed.
