Wendy Shay joins forces with Sarkodie on a new single called “This & That.” The record pairs the Ghanaian songstress and the award-winning rapper over a blend of Afrobeat rhythms, catchy melodies and playful lyrical performances.
Wendy Shay handles the singing side, delivering lines about romantic attraction, affection and the back-and-forth between two lovers. The hook is built to stick, and her performance carries most of the song’s energy. Sarkodie then slides in with a rap verse, bringing his usual flow and wordplay, which shifts the record’s pace and gives the collaboration a different texture from the sung sections.
The arrangement leans on that contrast. Melody first, then rap, with the Afrobeat groove holding both together. It is a simple structure, but it works because neither artist tries to crowd the other.
