Wendy Shay has finally buried the hatchet with Ebony's family two years after the death of the dancehall diva.
Although the two did not have a public fight to suggest there was bad blood between them, the introduction of Wendy to the world shortly after Ebony’s death did not sit well with the family of the late singer and her fans.
For others, it was not only about the timing but the forum Bullet chose for his announcement – the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.
Since then, there have been a lot of back and forth moments between Ebony’s father, Nana Opoku Kwarteng and Bullet over rights and music royalties of the fallen dancehall diva.
So intense was the misunderstanding that it manifested publicly, getting many Ghanaians to wade into the matter. Many people choosing sides in the matter of who really deserved to control Ebony’s posthumous legacy.
In the ensuing confusion, Wendy Shay became the proverbial grass that suffered as the two elephants fought.
Wendy suffered at the hands of Ebony fans who labelled her a copycat who couldn’t replace their queen.
Some even threatened to cut her life short for trying to perform mimic their heroine, Ebony Reigns.
Fast forward, two years after Ebony’s death, the Opoku Kwarteng family and members of the Rufftown record label have reunited to close the chapter on the friction that has existed between them.
This happened at an event dubbed “Ebony Jollof Party”, which was organised by both parties at Dansoman to annually honour the legacy of the Maame Hwe hitmaker.
Elated Wendy Shay, sharing a post with her fans on social media said:
“First time meeting the family of Ebony Reigns. The love is deep â¤ï¸. 16th February Is Ghana Jollof Day#ebonysjollofparty #rufftown #Shaygang.”
