Here's what Harrysong, aka Mr Songz, who is
currently living large under his new
management, KCee's 5Star Music, said in an
interview with Punch:
“Before now we (songwriters) charged between
N100, 000 and N2000, 000 for a song. Today
I charge as much as 1million to write a song.
Truth is, Nigerian artistes have begun to
appreciate songwriters. They pay me my
money and appreciate me. I have written a lot
of songs but I don’t talk about them because
Nigerian artistes don’t like it when the
songwriters take credit for compising songs
for them.”
And that's not all! About his Tribute song to
the late South African leader Nelson Mandela,
released on December 11, 2013, which
received a stunning one million downloads in
a single day, an excited Harrysong says:
“The proceeds from the caller-back tune is
actually worth more than N50m. Truth is, I
was paid a lot of money; you know - when
they say money that can change someone’s
life. That’s the value of what I received .
“I can’t reveal the exact amount because we
work as a team. So, all the money realised is
shared among us. You just want to forget all
the years of suffering. It’s not a mere hype
because the money is there. The song is
everywhere. You go to South-Africa , the girls
are crazy about it.”
