Alterplate Boss, Harrysong has stated that though he is known for his melodious vocal ability, he cannot rap to save his life.
In his words:”I cannot rap to save my life. The few times I tried it in the privacy of my house, my friends told me to shut my mouth because I was just doing rubbish. I can handle all other genre of music except rap,” he said.
He also revealed how the tribute song he wrote for Mandela, changed his career.
In his words:” That was the first time I experienced two new things in my life, because at that point I was going through a lot in life. It was a period when I was writing a lot of songs for people and when someone said I should do a tribute for Mandela, I replied that I had never met him before in my life but I heard the news of his death on the television. So many artistes had done various songs for him but I remember that on that day we were waiting for someone to come for their studio session, I was advised to seize the opportunity and sing the tribute song for Mandela because I was inspired by his story and he was not only loved in South Africa but the whole world .After a week I was informed that the song had trended on social media”.
