Speaking to Showtime about it, the singer said;

“When news of my first child’s pregnancy got to me, I was gripped with fear because I thought I was too young to father a child. I was just 28-years old at that time so I wasn’t really prepared emotionally or otherwise, I felt I wasn’t ready for that kind of commitment”, he revealed.

Harrysong Had No Visa On His Passport When I Met Him – Kcee

Apparently the feud between music artistes, Kcee and his former label mate, Harrysong, is far from over. On Wednesday, Harrysong posted a court document showing that Kcee had dragged him to court. The next day, Harrysong’s manager in an interview said that Kcee filed the lawsuit because his career was dead.

In a chat with Saturday Beats, the Limpopo singer claimed that Harrysong had no visa on his passport before he came on board, adding that his record label helped to build his self-confidence.

Kcee said, “When Harrysong was with us, we paid for his video shoots. He never travelled with his money and I am saying that with all confidence. I challenge him to contradict what I am saying. When I met Harrysong, he had no visa on his passport. We gave him his visas. He travelled business class even when he had yet to release any song under Five Star. He started travelling business class locally and internationally just to build self-esteem and confidence. We did all that because we wanted him to live like a king as a Five Star artiste. He travelled on a five star level. He shot all his videos internationally and I can show you all the invoices. Most of his videos were shot abroad.”

While Melania entertained the Russian leader, Trump sat beside the Argentinian First Lady Juliana Awada (top left). The fist lady, who grew up in Slovenia, then a part of Yugoslavia, knows several languages including German, which the Russian president also speaks thanks to his time in Eastern Germany as a KGB agent.
