Harrysong, who is a brand ambassador for communication giants, MTN, moved to Lagos in 2008 to engage in the hustle for prominence. He was previously signed onto Question Mark Entertainment, but later shifted his camp to Five Star Music, teaming up with Kcee to realize his full potential. In this new video, Harrysongz tells the story of his struggle, and expresses gratitude for his rise from grass to grace.
“Sometimes, I go to some shows when I hear a show is going on. At some places, I beg and pay to perform. I try as much as I can for people to hear mesing. Sometimes, I will beg from evening till when they will finish the show without any response.”

Harrysong recently disclosed that he charges over one million to write a song.
