Why I 'Denied' Being Married – Kcee

Earlier in the week, Limpopo singer, KCee received some knocks from fans for denying being married in a recent interview. The singer through his manager, Soso, said he neither denied nor accepted that he was married in the interview. He said that his client was joking with his interviewer when the question was asked because he likes keeping his marital life private.
Soso told Punch:

“He does not want to keep his family life in the public glare. That is why he joked about it. Marriage is a good thing and it is good to keep it private.”

Soso however refused to comment on KCee’s actual marital status. He also debunked rumours that the singer was gay as alleged following a picture where Phyno and KCee appeared in a seeming compromising posture.

Kcee is Angry with Bloggers for Spreading Rumours that Ebube Nwagbo Has Moved in with Him

Limpopo crooner, Kcee, isn’t a pleasant customer to run into, right now. The singer is as much in a foul mood as a bear with a boil. Ever since the rumour went viral that his old flame, Nollywood actress, Ebube Nwagbo had moved into his Lekki residence, he has been looking forward to having a word with someone and Vanguard's encounter with him on Thursday, according to Vanguard, was anything but friendly. 

Vanguard reports that a very vexed Kcee addressed the rumour, saying:

"Personally, I don’t have anything to lose by these rumours. I just feel for Ebube. She keeps crying, telling people that I’m the one spoiling her name, because she believes I’m behind the rumours. But it’s not me, I don’t have to spoil anyone’s name. Her mother even called me, crying, telling me to let her daughter be. They think I’m the one sponsoring all the rumours, but why should I do that? I know someone is behind all this. All these things they say are false, it’s not nice. In fact, I just spoke with my wife, she just left the country last week. She’s not based in Nigeria”.

I Charge N1m to Write Songs – Harrysong

Harrysong who is signed to Kcee's Fivestar music and wrote Kcee's limpopo told Punch that these days he charges as much as 1 million naira to write a song..He also said he made over 50M from MTN callerback tunes for his "Mandela song"That's good oh!

“Before now we 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 composing songs for them.”

 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."

I Was Called a ‘Rejected & Dejected’ artiste – KCee

Kingsley Okonkwo, better known as KCee, is making waves but the young man will not forget how he was seen and in fact, labelled a ‘rejected and dejected’ artiste. No wonder he is still amazed at the height he has achieved since he went solo a couple of years ago.

“God, the industry, and my fans suddenly made me a super attraction of the industry. Every single I drop got me more fans, made me more loved, and ranked me a level higher than where the last track stopped. It’s simply amazing.” KCee said.

Yes I Dated Nollywood Actress, Ebube Ngwagbo - Kcee Opens Up

Kcee in an interview with The Punch finally cleared the air on his alleged affair with Nollywood actress Ebube Nwagbo. Kcee denied the rumours earlier but in this interview he confessed they dated, although he refused to comment if he dated her while he was married or not. Kcee’s been married for at least 2 years

Can you clear the air on your marital status and the alleged affair you had with actress, Ebube Nwagbo?

Most times, I don’t like talking about marriage because it is a private issue.  But to clear the air, I never said I was married or not. The person that did the interview made a mistake. They  asked a simple question about a wedding in Lekki some years back and I told them it was not my wedding, it was E-Money’s wedding.
