Kcee, the singer and co-founder of Five Star Music, has refuted a claim by Harrysong of writing his hit songs.
Last year, Harrysong, the singer, accused his former label boss of owing him royalties.
He also claimed to resurrect Kcee’s career by helping him write his hits such as ‘Limpopo’, ‘Pull Over’, and ‘Okpekete’.
Reacting to the allegations in a recent interview on the Afrobeats podcast, Kcee said he had already achieved recognition before he knew Harrysong, citing his win in the 2002 Star Quest competition.
He said he released three albums when he was under Kennis Music, his previous record label, and questioned whether Harrysong contributed to the songwriting process.
Kcee also expressed concern for Harrysong’s “well-being”. He claimed his colleague has a “problem” and appealed for prayers on his behalf.
“When I won Star Quest, Harrysong was in the village with his grandmother,” he said.
“I did three albums with Kennis Music, did Harrysong write those? Harrysong has a problem, we need to pray for him. Jokes apart, we need to pray for him.”
This is not the first time tension has flared between the two singers.
Five Star Music, a label owned by Kcee and E-Money, his brother, used to be home to Harrysong and Skiibii.
In 2017, Harrysong left the label to establish his outfit called Altar Plate.
His exit was marred by conflict between him and Five Star Music.
They, however, reached a resolution shortly after, with Harrysong apologising for his wrongdoings.
