‘I didn’t see potential in him,’ Kcee speaks on feud with Flavour

Nigerian singer Kingsley Chinweike Okonkwo, popularly known as Kcee, has opened up on his alleged feud with colleague, Flavour.

The artist, in an interview with Yanga FM, revealed that he was once advised to sign Flavour but he declined because he did not see potential in him. He further explained what could be the cause of the perceived tension between the, stating that his personality is often misunderstood.

“Till now, I don’t understand the reason for his beef with me, especially that incident where he alleged that someone was copying him. The truth is that when some people had written you off, hoping that you would be stagnant, and you work hard and get to a level they don’t expect you to reach, that was what happened. I came into the music industry before Flavour. Soso Soberekon brought him to me years ago to sign to my record label. I was already driving exotic cars and balling before he came to Lagos. I told Soso I can’t sign Flavour because I didn’t see potential in him at that time. It wasn’t because I have something against him,” he stated.

Kcee added that although he gets underrated in the music industry, he allows his work speak for him rather than bragging or clearing up rumors.

“I don’t think that was why he is holding a grudge against me. But time shall tell. A lot of my colleagues underrate my talent, and my humility also contributed to that. Because I don’t brag. I don’t need it. But as I always say, time will always prove them wrong. My work always proves every doubter wrong. Some of those who doubted me in the past have come to apologise to me and admitted that they were wrong about me,” Kcee said.
