Nigerian singer and songwriter, Harrison Tare Okiri, better known by his stage name Harrysong, has said in a new interview that he is not in the music industry to compete with anyone.
Harrysong in an interview with Sunday Scoop said artists like Davido, Burna Boy, and Wizkid work extremely hard to maintain their top positions. The singer said it is not that every other person is not working hard. But, as far as he is concerned, he is not in the industry to compete with anyone.

“Everyone is the king of their castle. Artists such as Davido, Burna Boy, and Wizkid work really hard to maintain their prime position.
However, it is not that every other person is not working hard. But, as far as I’m concerned, I am not here to compete with anyone. If one has the spirit of competition, I don’t think one will be able to beat it,” he said.

Harrysong further stated that it is important to compliment artists that are doing well because a win for one is a win for others.
“It is important to always pay compliments to people who are doing well. If one congratulates them on their successes, one is also tapping into their grace. There is no need for envy or jealousy. The way I see it; when one person wins, it is a win for everyone. For example, when Burna Boy won the Grammy Award, he brought glory to Africa, not just Nigeria.”
