The ongoing feud between Nigerian music stars Kcee, also known as Limpopo, and his former label mate Harrysong has intensified, with Kcee continually sharing videos and audio clips of his past hit songs.
Many see this move as an apparent taunt against Harrysong, who previously claimed credit for most of Kcee’s successful tracks.
In recent weeks, Kcee has been posting snippets of his earlier collaborations with top music acts such as Davido and Diamond Platnumz.
People interpret these posts as a response to Harrysong’s claim that Kcee’s music career has been less impressive since he left Five Star Music, a label he and his brother E-Money co-owned.
Kcee, however, refutes Harrysong’s claims, insisting that he has released numerous hits post-Harrysong’s exit.
“I’ve dropped more hit songs since he left, and it’s something he would find hard to match,” Kcee said in a recent interview.
He added, “My music speaks for itself, and I don’t need anyone to validate my success.”
Harrysong, on the other hand, has been vocal about his contributions to Kcee’s career.
“I wrote many of his hit songs, and it’s unfortunate that he doesn’t acknowledge that,” Harrysong stated.
He also claimed that Kcee withheld royalties from some of the hit songs he released while he was still under contract with Five Star Music.
The tension between the two artists dates back to five years ago, when Harrysong opted out of his contract renewal with Five Star Music.
Harrysong clarified that the stalled renewal process prompted him to explore alternative opportunities.
“Leaving the label was a necessary step for my growth as an artist,” he said.
Despite leaving the label, Harrysong claims that he has not been fairly compensated for his work.
“Kcee and the label owe me royalties, and it’s disappointing that I have to fight for what is rightfully mine,” he said.
This accusation has added another layer to their ongoing dispute.
Kcee, however, dismissed Harrysong’s allegations about royalties.
“There’s no truth to what he’s saying. All financial matters were handled transparently,” Kcee responded.
He suggested that Harrysong’s claims are an attempt to gain public sympathy and attention.
The public fallout has drawn reactions from fans and industry insiders alike.
Some fans have taken sides, with a few supporting Harrysong’s claims of ghostwriting and unpaid royalties, while others stand by Kcee, praising his continuous stream of hit songs.
Adding fuel to the fire, Kcee recently posted a video montage of his performances and collaborations over the years, captioning it, “Real talent cannot be hidden. Hits upon hits.”
Many saw this post as a direct attack on Harrysong’s claims about his contributions to Kcee’s career.
Harrysong responded to Kcee’s posts, urging his followers to focus on the truth rather than the spectacle.
“Let’s not get distracted by the noise. The truth will always prevail,” he wrote on his social media.
He emphasized the importance of integrity in the music industry and how he has always stood for fairness.
The ongoing feud between Kcee and Harrysong shows no signs of abating, with both artists continuing to air their grievances publicly.
Fans continue to wonder if this long-standing conflict will ever find a resolution as the debate rages on.
For now, the music industry watches closely as these two former labelmates navigate their turbulent relationship, each continuing to build their legacy in the Nigerian music scene.
