Most do not know that female musician Seyi’s Shay’s rise in the Nigerian music industry is as a result of the role Sound Sultan and Flytime promotions boss Cecil Hammond played in her career. Here’s what she had to say about them:
“Sound Sultan is like my dad really, the dad I never had. He is my mentor, he’s also my song writer; he and his wife are like my mum and dad. It’s a relationship that’s indescribable, God just used him as a vessel to really expose me. I used to go round with Naija Ninjas and Radio tours and he kept introducing me as his protégé. Cecil also used to tell people to put me on their shows that I’m good. Between the two of them, I flourished a lot.”
