I Didn’t See Potentials In Him – Kcee Reveals Why He Refused To Sign Flavour, Speaks About Their ‘Beef’ (Video)

Kingsley Okonkwo, the famous Nigerian singer, who is popularly known as Kcee, has talked about the long-rumoured rift with his colleague, Flavour.

Recall that the duo engaged in a social media skirmish in 2024 after Flavour shaded someone online for allegedly copying his musical style.

While Flavour did not mention anyone, Kcee caught the shade and responded accordingly. He warned Flavour to stop trying to gatekeep Igbo cultural music, adding that he was in the music industry before him.

Speaking in a recent interview with Yanga FM Lagos, Kcee said his first encounter with Flavour was years ago when popular talent manager Soso Soberekon brought him to him to sign to his record label.

The Limpopo crooner explained that he refused to give Flavour a record deal because he didn’t see potentials in him then.

He, however, said he believes that their rift is not because of the rejection, but superiority complex. He emphasised that some of his colleagues believe that he is not talented because he doesn’t brag about his talent.

“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 potentials in him at that time. It wasn’t because I have something against him.

“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 prove 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.

Why I’m Not An Afrobeats Artiste – Flavour

Popular Nigerian singer, Chinedu Okoli, popularly known as Flavour, has revealed why he’s not an Afrobeats singer.
He spoke when he appeared on a recent episode of the ‘Afrobeats Podcast’ hosted by Shopsydoo.


Flavour explained that he is not bothered about not being credited for the global rise of Nigeria’s Afrobeats genre because he is not an Afrobeats artiste.

He stated that he deserves recognition for his contribution to African music but that is not coming because the media promotes only Afrobeats as a genre from Africa.
 
“I don’t feel bad when I’m not given credit on the global rise of African music because what the media is talking about is Afrobeats. I’m not an Afrobeats artiste,” he said.
“What I’m doing is African music. There are guys like Fally Ipupa, Diamond Platinumz who are pushing African music globally that are not Afrobeats artists.
 
“Most times, the media just talks about Afrobeats. They are not talking about African music. If you talk about African music, of course, you should mention my name.”
The High-life crooner urged the media to promote not just Afrobeats but other popular African genres.
