A statement signed by his label manager, Desmond Ike-Chima, reads:
Harrysong is Getting The Needed Help
A big thank you to concerned fans, friends and family who have put in calls, Messages and emails to check on Harrysong after his last alarming Instagram post 22 hours ago.
The truth is Harrysong has been dealing with slight emotional issues in the last few days and has been trying to manage it alone. But at this point we are getting him the needed help.
We have been in talks with Emotional Intelligence Trainer and Practitioner, Oyinkansola Alabi and a session has been booked.
Depression is real, but when that happens one should sought for help in the appropriate quarters.
Once again, Thank you all.
