Wendy Shay has released her latest single “Psycho,” a searing anthem of liberation that confronts toxic relationship dynamics head-on. The track emerges as a powerful narrative of personal transformation, challenging manipulative behaviour and celebrating individual strength, according to a Onerpm statement accompanying the release.
With razor-sharp lyrics, Shay dismantles the chains of a controlling relationship, declaring unequivocally, “I’m not your slave” and “This year I’m not taking your nonsense.” The song’s raw emotional landscape paints a vivid picture of a woman reclaiming her power, rejecting narcissistic manipulation and charting a course of self-determination.
“’Psycho’ is for anyone who’s ever felt trapped in a controlling relationship,” Shay explains. “It’s about breaking free, reclaiming your power, and knowing you deserve better.”
Her words resonate with a universal experience of overcoming emotional manipulation, transforming personal struggle into a collective cry for empowerment.
The track’s bilingual approach, weaving between English and local Ghanaian languages, adds depth to its narrative, making the message both personal and universally accessible. Lines like “I’m not that girl you used to know, see me stronger” become a mantra of personal growth and resilience.
Musically, “Psycho” continues Shay’s trajectory as an uncompromising voice in Afropop, blending powerful vocal delivery with a message of personal liberation. “Psycho” testifies to Wendy Shay’s artistry – bold, unapologetic and deeply meaningful.
“Psycho” is now available on all major streaming platforms, inviting listeners, who can connect with the singer on Instagram and X, to embrace their own journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
