I Can’t Get Over The Death Of Sound Sultan — Seyi Shay by faith2kool(f): 11:04pm On Oct 17, 2021 |
Some losses hit harder than others, and for singer-songwriter, Oluwaseyi Joshua, popularly known as Seyi Shay, the death of music legend, Olanrewaju Fasasi, popularly known as Sound Sultan hit close to home. The singer-songwriter, who shared her relationship with Sound Sultan as well as her journey through the Nigerian music industry with host and co-founder of Joy Inc, Chude Jideonwo, recalled that she bumped into Sultan at the recording studio of a music producer named Doc Def. According to Seyi Shay, by the end of their conversation, Sound Sultan had listened to her music, learnt that she had been part of a girl band that had recently broken up and promised that he would get her an investor so Seyi Shay could come to Nigeria to do her music- which he did. He connected Seyi Shay with Cecil Hammond of Flytime Productions, one of the biggest promotional companies in Nigeria’s history, and the singer-songwriter relocated to Nigeria to explore music. Sharing this she said, “I lived with Sultan for a year. I lived with him in Festac- him and his wife. It was a great experience. He was my mentor, one of my best friends. We co-worked together. And actually, at some point, it became less about music and more about just friendship. He was like my small daddy . “He was very, very close to me. And his wife became like my small mommy. You know, it was just magical- like a very amazing time spent with him.” Despite the painfulness of his death, Seyi Shay is glad that she “got to know him on that level” and to her, “he is still around.” Speaking of other events in her life, Seyi Shay talked of the day she finally got her mother’s full approval regarding her music. She stated that she took her mother to the studio one day and played her first album for her mother. “She was blown away like I saw the pride in her eyes. She was just so moved. From that moment she was like, ‘Okay. I understand now what you want to do,” she said. Source: https://tigblog.com.ng/2021/10/17/i-cant-get-over-the-death-of-sound-sultan-seyi-shay/

She saw a model /mentor in him. No surprises, unlike one bad influence of an artist whose songs make up a good chunk of those banned by NBC. Sound sultan was really a likeable person. Time heals they say, so it's only a matter of it Seyi shay. 2 Likes
