Honestly ,, before now i have noticed pride in the life of Harry Song, anybody with good eyes will know that Kcee and His brother loved Harry song naturally not because he is a good musician ..

I am not surprised by what is happening now because Harry Song is a proud guy since 2 years ago.

I use to see betrayal on his face anytime i see him around Kcee and his brother, upon all the love they have been showering him, he did not even give them a good music .

You are eagle eyed

INGRATES EVERYWHERE. Harry Sing go and complete you contract obligations. Or if there is a buyout clause your new sponsor should pay. Jesus this is why people don't assist again. Someone who brought you out of the gutters cleaned you up.
If u ain't careful this will bring ur downfall and end to your career.

what's 3 albums in 3years for an artiste that know what he is doing? That's an album a year. US artistes drop albums every year.

This is why I hate being, or even sounding, desperate before an employer. Some of these people are like the devil. Give you a "juicy" contract with one hand and with the other hand, include some soul-sapping clauses.
when you talented u can release two albums in a year

Harrysong is to FiveStar what Emmanuella is to Macangel.

He did a lot to resuscitate Kcee's career and make the music label relevant. It is very possible there was a breach of contract but E-money should also factor the positive things Harrysong contributed to the label.

Artists and music labels disagree often. They shouldn't let this one get too messy.
You make sense sha

For me some Nigerian artiste won't sell shii. All they do yearly is to drop singles upon singles. Without compiling an album. Its only in Nigeria that an artiste will make money and dance all over the place off of a single for 3 years. Lazy bastardz . Harry Song go and finish ur contract.
Re: 'Why We Arrested Harrysong' - Five Star Music Releases Official Statement by DrP2000(m): 8:52am On Jan 28, 2017
I taught KCEE once said he picked HARRYSONG from beer parlour. This write up showed that its not even 5star music that discovered him but rather another record label but they have been claiming the glory.
Whichever be the case ,let them settle but the truth remains that you can't prevent a STAR from shining, HARRYSONG is a great star and so he shall remain but if its true he violated his contract, then he messed up full-time, let him go and settle outside the court if not they will frustrate him.
He should learn to keep his mouth shut, let his music speak for him, not telling the whole world na you dey write song for this or that, you don get sponsor etc

A contract is still a contract, and you can't just decide to walk away because you feel it does not favour you anymore.

5star music is a company, not a charitable organization. They need ROI & profit to remain in business. And artists walking out of contracts will never give them that.

There are no rooms for sentiments in business and I believe the relationship between Harry and 5 Stars was built based on sentiments. 5 Stars Music signed Harry with an initial expense pricetag of N5m because they were building a brand then and needed his expertise in adding value to the label, while Harry needed 5 Stars Label so badly to escape his unsuccessful engagement at Question Mark. Both parties signed that record contract on other sentiments outside of the primary structures of the agreement.

Three albums in 3 years ? Does Harry Song has capacity to be inspired to make great songs ? Hell No! I think the most important thing here is that Harry Song foolishly and out of sentiment sign those papers to promote himself, and escape into the planet of gold with eMoney and he has achieved that.

From the clear publication; If Harry Song signed that contract, to release 3 albums in 3 years, then he did that with a volition that he is capable. He can not just be ripping up record labels and running to the public for sympathy when you foolishly signed a contract based on sentiments to cheat your former employer. Then turn around to run away from the new label cos you cant execute the contract you signed in full.

My judgment without sentiment state as follow;

Whereas Harry Song, without duress signed the stated contract with an understanding in English, then he must fulfill the contractual agreement irrespective of any other unstructured assistance he must have offered in studios which was never penned down in the agreement.

That 5 Star must also fulfill their contractual agreements to Harry Songs, not any appreciation for sentimental jobs.

Alternatively, Harry Song or His new label MUST pay equivalent amount that an average of the albums that the music albums should be worth in cash or as an extended credit with timeline.

Music begins with talents and is developed as skill set but none of those efforts can make you more popular except in your bathroom. The music labels provide an assemblage of unified minds, where thoughts are manufactured for public consumption and MUST remain bigger than any artist.

Harry Song, can not succeed without a settlement with 5 Star Music, it is not just possible as any one inviting Harry Song for a gig, takes a great risk as he can be stopped from performing with a legal and street action.

Laws must be respected and sentiments must be exploited. Never sign agreements when desperate.

Be sounding like someone trying to convince people accusing u of being fraudulent that u are now legit.....smh


I thought I was the only one that observed the constant repeat of that phrase... Well, I just wish Harrysong the best and I hope he finally gets rid of the ants on his d*ck otherwise they won't let him move forward.

Ma nigggga people don't just help u cos of the love they got for u, ur assertion is wrong. They love u cos of what they can gain from u. Just read tru that press release again and see the conditions that were set in the contract Harry signed. After buying out his previous contract for 5m, they want him to release 3 albums in 3years(Olamide is probably the only A'list artist that has achieved this in recent times), they don't want him to collaborate with other musicians on other labels,they want him to always remit a certain percentage to the record label for every penny he makes(which they are not telling us how high it is, probably like the wizkid vs EME 25%/75%)
Tell me where the love like a brother is coming from.

The truth is, they set some unrealistic terms and conditions in that contract, and knowing fully well that as a struggling artiste he is so desperate to get a platform, they were able to tie him down. The unwise Harry that he is didn't even learn from the issue he had with his initial label, he just took the bait.
they poached him from the other label , now someone else is doing it to them . Like that saying " if they cheat with you , they will cheat on you "!. People without loyalty are the worst scums of the earth , fear them .
