Wendy Shay is a Ghanaian Afropop singer
Female songstress, Wendy Shay, has recounted how her recent hit song, “Too Late,” came about.
According to her, while speaking during an interview on 3Music TV, and monitored by GhanaWeb, a misunderstanding arose after she released her rendition of “Vivian,” a Cameroonian song that recently made wave on the Internet.
Wendy Shay explained that she and her team reached out to the originator of the “Vivian” song – Prince Aimé, to seek licensing to be able to use it.
But she said after paying a hefty but undisclosed amount of money to Prince, another person surfaced by name Waxy Kay, claiming ownership to the song instead, demanding that Wendy Shay pays another sum of money to him.
The artiste added that after paying the money for the second time, Waxy Kay reached out again to demand more money, threatening to remove the song from all streaming platforms, simply because the song was doing well.
Wendy Shay continued that she was frustrated with everything that was happening at the time and so she poured her emotions and frustrations into a new project which ended up becoming her hit single, “Too Late.”
However, she said the “Too Late” song wasn’t going as she wanted it to as she felt something was missing until Tracy Shay entered the picture and danced to the song, which ended up blowing up and pushing the song to mainstream media.
Wendy Shay added that Tracy has been nothing but a blessing since their paths crossed and she’s particularly grateful “this child came into my life as a blessing and to show gratitude to God, to the universe, whatever connected us, I just need to do something for her in return.”
Wendy added that she has refused to give attention to what critics have been saying about her, but only wants to show appreciation and do something for Tracy in return.
