Popular female singer, Seyi Shay mid-last year landed a recording contract with Island Universal Records, joining the likes of famous American superstars like Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, to mention a few.
Seyi Shay recently revealed why she possibly emerged the only act in Africa to be signed by the Record label.
According to Seyi, “I think a lot of record companies around the world at one point last year were looking for acts within Africa. So they were focusing on South Africa, Ghana, and Nigeria. I know they signed some other acts, from different parts of Africa.

According to Seyi, “I think a lot of record companies around the world at one point last year were looking for acts within Africa. So they were focusing on South Africa, Ghana, and Nigeria. I know they signed some other acts, from different parts of Africa.
I was signed mainly off the strength of Murda. Murda was released independently, completely independently with no engine, no marketing, no nothing, no money. And it grew its own wings, it crossed over, and it charted in the UK on its own.”
“I think they found that to be quite a big deal, and so they decided to invest in wherever that success came from, and that was me and my team. They felt that they had found something good out of Africa, so they decided to sign me.” she added
