10 Things you Should Know About Shaydee

Nigerian singer Shaydee hit the spotlight after he was signed to Banky W’s EME records back in 2012 and have since gone to release a couple of songs that can be termed successful.

Shaydee, however, left the label in 2017 and according to him;

I think I was the only one that left without any story.

I think people were just looking for drama and they couldn’t find any with me.

I know how media works and I like my reputation to be good without blemish.

I don’t have time for all that lies.

We’re all trying to make money, so everyone is cool”

On his former boss, Shaydee celebrated him then went on to thank him for the opportunity.

Happy birthday Bankssss @bankywellington … May Gods great favour and grace be with you. Thanks for all I have learnt from you and thanks for the opportunity you gave me to find my path in life as I continue on this incredible journey on my own. May God reward you accordingly a thousand fold.”
