Say what you want to about dancehall artiste Shenseea, but let it never be said *Chris Brown voice* “These girls ain’t loyal”.

After allowing the gossipmongers to run wild with speculation and assumptions for days in the wake of the Love I Got For You singer’s announcement that she has a new manager, CEO and founder of XO Recordings Wassim ‘Sal’ Slaiby, Shenseea has finally addressed the elephant in the room.

In an interview with the Jamaica Observer on Thursday (July 15), the artiste confirmed that while she was ecstatic to be working alongside Slaiby, she had no intentions of cutting ties with former manager Romeich Major or the Romeich Entertainment label.

As the artiste seeks to unfold this new chapter within her career, she noted, “I feel like I’m starting over, but with experience, but on a bigger level.”

Speaking on the matter of her relationship with new manager Slaiby she stated: “We are still a work in progress. He just came on board officially, but he’s been working behind the scenes. We’re trying to see how compatible we are with each other.”
