“People a really a talk bout sacrifice… yuh see social media is a thing weh mi use it a lot — to promote myself and my music and help me get weh mi deh — but there are things you can never get me to do, which is get angry over comments,” The “Blessed” singjay said during an Instagram live session over the weekend.
“You see in a time like this when mi madda dead and unno come a talk bout sacrifice, that show mi seh the devil himself send unno so mi neven fi get worked up over that but mi need unno fi know seh I really can find you… but I won’t cause you can’t hide from God.

“So whoever talk bout me sacrifice my mada unu sick as f**k. Sick sick sick sick sick sick sick yuh f**k. Sick sick sick bredda. Unu sick!” she added.
In the footage, Shenseea also recalled the sacrifices her mother made to provide for her necessities and send her to school. She further expressed regret in not being able to pamper her mother more as the artist’s career grow.
“Mi disappointed seh mi just a really start show her life,” she stated.
“Mi nuh really grow wid mi madda, mi see her like almost every two weeks when I was growing up cause she used to do live-in jobs.
