I won't stop helping people because of Harrysong - Kcee
Limpopo singer , Kingsley Chinweike Okonkwo , popularly known as Kcee in showbiz circles, has insisted that the disagreement with his former label mate , Harrysong , will not stop him from extending opportunities to other talented artistes.
Harrysong left Five Star Music in a controversial manner . He has set up his own record label , Alterplate Music , even though the conflict has yet to be resolved amicably .
Kcee, however , admitted to Sunday Scoop
that the manner in which Harrysong left his record company almost affected his desire to sign on other artistes, but he had to fight it .
“ I sat down and thought about it . I said to myself that humans are different so you cannot judge everyone by somebody ’ s wrongdoing . I think everyone deserves a chance ; everyone deserves an opportunity . But it has to be clear when I do this with other people . I often advise record label owners to tell artistes to bring their lawyers before signing any deal . The up and coming artistes are usually desperate and hungry to get to the next level, but once they get there , they feel you are no longer important . ”
Reacting to why not much has been heard of Skiibii , another artiste under Five Star Music , he said it was just unfortunate that when he joined them, there were many projects on ground .
“ Skiibii is talented and he has a lot of songs as I speak to you . But after the label concluded with my projects , Harrysong came next . Skiibii is supposed to be the next artiste on our list after Harrysong , but you need money and you need to pay attention to the brand also . I think those little factors affected him one way or the other . We still believe in him and plan to support him except if anything happens otherwise . ”
Unlike Don Jazzy’ s Mavin Records , the Ajegunle- born singer insisted that they don ’ t intend to sign many artistes at Five Star Music , noting that they are not interested in numbers but in getting the job done well .
He maintained , “ We have the capacity to sign 20 artistes if we want to, but we have our own style that we follow . We take our time before we sign on artistes and we go for people who have raw talent . Right now , we are just trying to put things together . When we are ready to sign artistes, we will make it open to everyone . ”
Kcee also stated that he is still open to working with his former partner , Presh . According to him , there is nothing impossible .
“ When I broke up with Presh , I never expected it . When Harrysong left too , I didn ’ t expect him to leave at that time and in the manner he did . Sometimes , when things happen , you just have to relax and ask questions . Anything can still happen in life . Tomorrow , God might connect Presh and me together again . ”
