“I lived up to expectation, as I turned the whole place ‘upside down’. That was the expectation for the nights and I thank God I did not disappoint my fans.
“I started writing music at an unbelievable young age. My motivation has been the love for music and seeing others doing well also added to the motivation.
“My message to other music producers, writers and singers is that they should keep on writing, just keep dropping them in the studio. You don’t know which one will be accepted by the listening public. Keep writing and singing on your bed, in the sitting room, just keep it coming.
“I know it is not easy, but continuity is the key, you don’t know when that moment will come.
“For me, this is just the beginning, not the end. There are more to come. I always write songs from fantasy and experiences. Whenever you see Harcher it is going to be a vibe”.
Harcher said the great Late Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Davido and Olamide are top among his role models.
He described Bullion Records as his Guardian. “Bullion Records is the Guardian. Everything I need they provide
Professionalism is also there. With Bullion Records I want to see myself on the bigger stage”, he said.
