She enlists Yemi Alade, Simi, Wande Coal, BackRoad Gee, and a few more collaborate on the sophomore album.
A-list producers such as Kel P, Spiritual-Vibes, Aikore Bruno, PD, Dr Amir, and others were tasked with producing the majority of the music.

Seyi Shay, a spectacular vocalist and one of Africa’s finest artists, made her come back with the release of the much-awaited “Big Girl” album, a beautiful blend of Afrobeat, Hip Hop, and R&B tempered by introspective lyricism and real personality.
Seyi explores themes of self-love, sexuality, and empowerment through a prism of Afro-infused production and flourishes of groovy 90’s nostalgia.
The 12-track album “Big Girl,” connects with listeners and evokes ecstasy as she guides them through her journey.
Seyi credits her motivation to her climb to fame, lessons learned, and meditations practised along the way, as well as attaining inner peace.
The “Big Girl” album, according to the UK native artist, can also be viewed as a metaphor for women’s progress in becoming who they are.
“This album illustrates a woman’s evolution in friendship, relationship, career, and everything else that makes her unique,”
Seyi remarked. “I wasn’t scared to express all of the emotions of fear, courage, joy, grief, and agony that have contributed to my growth and evolution as an artist and in my personal journey” in Big Girl.
