Musician Wendy Shay has said that it is unreasonable for people to compare her to her fellow artiste Gyakie.
In an interview on TV3, the Ruff Town Records signee said that they are two different talented artistes, and they should be appreciated for their own unique style and sound.
The comparisons between Wendy Shay and Gyakie have since been a subject of debate among music fans and critics in Ghana.
While both artistes have achieved significant success in the music industry, Ghanaians are of the opinion Gyakie is outshining Wendy Shay on the international front.
Reacting to this Wendy Shay said that “it’s not fair to even compare. You know, I have been doing and giving hits back-to-back for five years so there shouldn’t be any comparison. I am an international artiste as well and I am working towards it to become a global artiste."
The 'Survivor' hitmaker explained that people should not see female artiste as competing against each other adding that they can all be allowed to shine and be celebrated for their individual talents.
"The race is not for the swift; once you’re working hard and working on yourself, you are going to get wherever you put your mind to," Wendy Shay added.
The ‘Survivor’ hitmaker further stressed that comparisons can sometimes be discouraging for artistes and may hinder their creative growth. Instead, she called for unity among music lovers.
