In an interview with an entertainment firm, harrysong reveals in once paid a club to let him perform and how he sleep under the bridge….Read excerpts below
In your song ‘My Story’, you said you once slept under the bridge?
Yes, everything in that song is true. You know I’m from Lagos, I’m an Ijaw boy from Delta State, and the only thing I know how to do from my childhood is music, singing and writing. So back then I used to rehearse people’s songs to go and perform at clubs.
So there was this day and it was unlucky to stay late at the club where I went to perform and they had locked the gate to the house of my friend I was squatting with, the annoying thing was I paid to perform at the show and yet they still didn’t allow me to perform because I wasn’t popular even though I paid to perform. So I was forced to sleep under the bridge at Ikeja till daybreak.
