Ask lovers of Nigerian music today to mention the top five female
singers ruling the music scene right now and see if Seyi Shay’s name
doesn’t pop up. At least, this must be one of the reasons Pepsi thought
it befitting to make her their newest ambassador alongside Tiwa Savage
and Wizkid
Born Deborah Oluwaseyi Joshua in London to Nigerian parents, Seyi
started her professional career in 2005 by producing three songs for the
soundtrack to the Konami’s video game Crime Life: Gang Wars and
recently took the Nigerian music scene by storm with her smash hits
“Irawo”, “Ragga Ragga”, and “Chairman”.
Concerning her pet names, Seyi told Potpourri she has
several names she goes by for different reasons. “The first one is
Sunshine. The person that calls me that says it’s because I’m always
happy and I am warm to others. There is ‘Irawo’ after my hit single
‘Irawo’ but my very first pet name is Sey-Seyi. My sister still calls my
name twice like that till today” she says
