In some tragic news, Shenseea’s mother has passed away.

The grief-stricken artiste took to her Instagram to share the news and her feelings about the devastating event.

The two were very close and there are many social media videos that show the extent and depth of their love for each other. As recently as May she shared a mishap involving her mom that left them stranded on the road and how much fun they had walking home.

In May, the artiste also shared her rags-to-riches story by taking fans on a visit to her childhood home at a time when she had very little.  “Mommy was a single parent and worked and lived in jobs so during high school years I moved back and forth between relatives just to get a place to stay…. then drop out a college ( financial problems)”, Shenseea said of her humbled beginnings with her mom.

It’s a tough blow for the artiste who is just 23-years-old.

Spice was the first person to comment and she said: “ WTF OMG why mi a refresh mi page over and over to read again @shenseea I’m soooooooo Sorry #RI I’m lost.”

Her manager Romeich said: “Love u mommy” and Popcaan added: “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO jah know shen  jah jah.”

Ding Dong Ravers commented: “Jah jah sis ….. rip mamma sleep in peace ….. jah know sis hold it even tho mi know it hard”

Stefflon Don added: “Oh my God may her soul rest in peace sending you and your family love and strength!!!!! ,” and Trinidad based band Kes the Band, who has a single with Shenseea also commented: “Nothing will replace your loss in the physical existence . She now lives through you, closer than ever before , your spirit and vibe is a testament to that . Keep Keeping on  and carry her everywhere you go , in all that you achieve . Talk to her , she will forever guide you. Strength , love and healing.”

One fan said that they felt the loss deeply because of how close they knew the two were: “I thought I was the only one doing that. God ..the way I love you and your mom @shenseea it feels like my lost too I am praying hon for u because if I’m feeling this sad with this much tears I can’t begin to understand how u are feeling,” and another added: “Omg! God have mercy on your heart Shen!! My condolences to you and your family… keep strong! Ress up mommy!”

Details have not been released about her death as yet but form the photo shared with the post, which has already received support from close to 160,000 of Shenseea’s fans, it seems she was in the hospital. No doubt it’s going to be a tough time for the Shenseea and her family and we wish her heartfelt condolences.

There were some reactions to the Shenseea’s mother’s passing.

Beauty, brains, talent … and she cooks! Dancehall artiste Shenseea flexes her cooking skills on Fuse TV’s Made From Scratch by whipping up a favourite local dish, steamed fish and okra with Excelsior water crackers.

The Made From Scratch segment is just one of Fuse TV’s many shows and tends to feature hot personalities so that viewers can get a sneak peek into their lives. Going inside their homes, celebs will share traditional family recipes and foods they grew up eating, alongside the people who know them best and helped to make them who they are today.

The June 16th episode featured the Blessed singer with her bestie Ashley at her home in Kingston, Jamaica. As Shenseea brought out the Red Snappers (her preference to the other common Parrot fish) and began tossing on the powdered seasonings along with a little black pepper and salt, she went on to tell us about where she grew up.

“So I grew up in Golden Spring, you know Lane Pass… is what we would call the ‘hood’ here in Jamaica.” In high school, she met Ashley in 10th grade and they’ve been friends ever since, which would sum up 9-years of friendship between the two.

Even though Ashley said that they loved partying and would go out a lot, Shenseea said her favourite memory from back then was sleeping over her friend’s house and watching late-night movies and often cooking… well, she would cook and Ashley would eat!

Fast-forward to today and Ashley is the ShengYeng boss’s assistant. It’s an easygoing role Ashley says, “She mostly goes into boss mode but I have to know the difference between work time and play time. So if I’m doing a mistake or anything and she corrects me, I don’t really feel anyway about it or get defensive or anything.”

Shenseea said her love for cooking emerged at a young age from watching her aunt put it down in the kitchen. Her aunt’s recipes and style of cooking has stayed with her to this day and even the way she cuts her vegetables is exactly the same.

Her love for music also started at an early age she said, “I’ve always wanted to become an artiste, from ever since I discovered my talent and dat was about like … probably like 7 or 6 years old.” After she had her son Rajeiro, 4 years ago, it pushed her to finally chase her dreams. Ashley wasn’t the least bit surprised that she became the sensation she is today, “Surprised? No not surprised, because she was always popular in high school, she was always known…”

The ShengYeng queen said her musical style is often inspired by her many moods as well as the kind of people she sometimes hang out with. She continued to reveal her ‘top fav’ singles and why, Foreplay and The Sidechick Song because she feels they were some of her best-written work and Blessed with Tyga since it was her first big international collab.

Back to the pot…

Dropping in the final ingredients of pumpkin, carrots, Irish potatoes and okras, Shenseea shows viewers a little secret to boosting the flavour of her pot – stuffing the veggies inside the head of the fish! She later adds the water crackers on top for what looks like a scrumptious, lip-smacking meal for two.

Dancehall artiste Shenseea is ready for another baby, but the news isn’t going down too smoothly with the main man in her life.

Ladies be prepared, Shenseea’s son Rajeiro is about to kick start your ovaries into high gear with his latest whining to his mom about the matter. It’s no secret the 4-year old is a mama’s boy, and now he’s making it very clear that there is absolutely no room for another kid, especially a baby sister.

The Blessed singer shared the delightful conversation with Raj on her Instagram page yesterday as he distressingly asked, “You don’t want to be my mother?” The concerning question came in response to Shenseea, suggesting that she wanted to have another baby.

When she asked him why he would say such a thing, little Raj responded, “Cus, you said you wanna have another baby without me.” Being quite frank, Shenseea said, “Yah, ah gonna have another baby, what’s wrong with that?”

” alt=”” aria-hidden=”true” />

This got Raj clearly nervous and a bit fidgety; he started mumbling before the words could finally come out again, “I’m your baby too.” Shenseea determined to get her demands across to the toddler and, ignoring the sweetness oozing from his face, proceeded anyway to say, “Yah, but you still going be my baby, but I want another baby too.”

Enough is enough, Raj looked right at her to get to the meat of the matter and asked, “Why, which baby you want?” Well it seems mom was a little unprepared for the question, she stuttered a reply, “I don’t know, ahhh … I want a … I want a … I want a girl baby.”

Slapping his forehead and pressing down on his eyes in stark distress, Raj intensely growled, “WHAT!!! … WHY YOU DON’T LOVE ME???

Her words after clearly meant nothing to little Raj, Shenseea captioned the post of her baby conversation:

“Father help me, I want another baby but it seems I’m finna ruin @rajeiro__lee and I one on one relationship – parents of 2 or more, What should I do…how u do you share the love equally?”

The coronavirus pandemic has not slowed down sultry songstress Shenseea, as she recently announced that she might be thinking about releasing an album.

Shenseaa made the announcement on her Instagram page, following the release of her latest track Good Comfort.

In an Instagram post yesterday, she said, “Let me know, I won’t release one until my ShenYengz are ready!” before hashtagging her other recent releases, Wasabi and The Sidechick Song.

She’s been releasing tracks steadily but had not indicated before when an album would be ready or that it was even in the works.

Raising her fans’ curiosity, she asked, “The question for me today from me to you guys is, are you ready for an album? Do you want a Shenseea album?”

Shenseea now has a good body of work to choose from, as she’s been continually releasing new music that has been doing well internationally.

She, like many other artistes in the genre, have Vybz Kartel to thank for the initial push into the spotlight. She first began turning heads in 2016 after a song with the Worl’ Boss called Loodi.  Since then, she’s worked tirelessly to maintain her place in dancehall and can boast of international tours and sold-out shows.

Even though she had some success since 2016, her major breakthrough came in 2019 with Blessed, which has over 40 million views.  ShenYeng Anthem (2018) has also done extremely well with over six million U.S. streams since its release, that is, according to Nielsen Music.

She’s also had to dispel the inference that she’s only made it because of her looks.
Last July, during an interview with Billboard, she said: “I’m not just a pretty face, I’m an entertainer. You get me?”

Her fans, commonly known as the Shenyeng army, were quick to offer support and show enthusiasm for an album. Her manager Romeich Major was one of the first to support the idea: “o a wah #badhabbit nah count hey shenyeng mine enuh and album is a must,” he said.

One fan said: “Mi deven buy music but mi woulda be the first one to purchase that,” another excited fan said: “YES WE WANT A FIRE SHENYENG ALBUM,” and this fan also shared their excitement as well: “And before that, foreplay, just a bagga hits. Just slap we wid e album and dun! An Doh question wi.”

The short video clip has received over 3700 comments and countless fire emojis, indicating that her fans are waiting to see what she has up her sleeve.  Watch below.

Shenseea’s got the ‘good comfort’ and explains how in a hot new song that was released on her YouTube page. Brace yourself for 2 minutes of nonstop sexy lyrics delivered by some of the sweetest vocals ever heard from the ShengYeng princess.

The single comes with a teaming of herself and DJ Frass Records on a smooth melodic riddim with the Blessed artiste singing a dancehall submersed in R&B style track.

The tone is set right at the get-go, the action starts in the intro “mi bend ova mek yuh stab stab stab stab stab it up,” she then proceeds to divulge a few perks of her lady bits. From eyeballs rolling back, seeing the heavens to feeling wetter than the ocean, Shenseea says she’s got the good comfort to make her guy come right back for more.

Listen to the full version of Good Comfort below.

The single also demonstrates some refreshing vocals from Shenseea. While we’ve heard some soulful tunes from this songbird, none seem to hit the same musical notes as Good Comfort. The style of delivery is somewhat reminiscent of another dancehall singer she might hate being compared with, but the acoustics don’t lie, and they exude impressions of Jada Kingdom.

Upon listening to the track, many fans also agreed. Navar Blair said, “I love Shenseea, but this sounds like it was inspired by Jada Kingdom! I was a bit confused. Love the song tho. Guess I’ll call this one ShengKingdom.”

Another thought the song was a teaming with the two singers, Sherice Gordon, said, “A taught it was she a jada collab,” while sk josephs96 said, “cant help but hearing Jada Kingdom!!”

“Nah lie. It sound like Jada flow, her type a song,” said another Shen Yeng.

Another fan found them some hints of Stalk Ashley in Good Comfort too. “She song like Jada kindom and stalk Ashley. nah lie who else think so?”

Nonetheless, there is a long list of doting fans showing her love for the new release. Shenseea certainly knows how to drive her male admirers crazy, and her single status doesn’t make it any easier on them. Good Comfort premiered just over 20 hours ago and has scored more than 100k streams already with fans asking for more – listen here.

It is shaping up to be a bad week for dancehall artiste Shenseea, who can’t seem to catch a break as she tries to promote her work.

The singer faced new criticism on Instagram when she shared a clip from her Sidechick Song video, on ‘Black Out Tuesday’.

Some fans and critics of the dancehall princess aren’t too happy with her, as they say, she has not been vocal enough on the death of 46-year-old George Floyd which has led to mass protests and has evolved into a larger social movement aimed at ending racism.

The new backlash comes after the singer was also criticized on May 27 for a series of photos she shared of herself in a blue police outfit, two days after the death of Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

While some fans lapped up the appealing visuals of The Sidechick Song yesterday, others took aim at the artiste, noting that she needs to use her platform to show her support for the topical issue of ending racism.

“Sis I love you, but you gotta address what’s going on in the world for the one time. Remember your son is black too, we need everyone to stand together & raise awareness,” said one Instagram user whose comment attracted over 134 likes.

“I meaaaaannn, it’s blackout Tuesday why you posting your song about yam head gyals

” alt=”” aria-hidden=”true” />. All we needed from you today was a black screen,” added another IG user.

However, Shenyeng loyalists pushed back, noting that the artiste had been vocal, in her Instagram Stories, so much so that she had been catching flack for it. “She did and got bashed for it,” said one IG user.

They also pointed out that Shenseea had spoken out on Twitter on a viral incident that involved a white woman calling a Jamaican delivery man “a slave”.  She also shared her own experiences with racism while traveling overseas.

Shenseea seems to have gained wind of the convo and subsequently shared a black square on her IG as a sign of support for Blackout Tuesday, a social media initiative aimed at reflecting on recent events in the wake of the death of George Floyd.

However, the critics did not stop there as her perceived lack of support for the Black Lives Matter movement gained traction.

Twitter users brought things to a new level after one user shared a comment Shenseea made almost two years ago, which further raised suspicions about her stance on racially sensitive matters.

“Y’all yam head a get drape up again. It’s been a tough week for her,” tweeted one woman who shared a comment in which Shenseea tells Prince Pine (her former love) she is happy his daughter didn’t have his hair texture.

The politics surrounding afro-textured hair is one that is often linked to colonialism which promoted a color hierarchy. The color hierarchy suggests that blacks who were closer to the colonial master based on lighter skin tones and less textured hair were better off than those who were not.

Twitter users had a field day.
