Kenyan artist Queen Marie J, real name Marie Njoroge, now claims her collaboration with Tanzanian singer Rayvanny fell through because he allegedly violated the terms of their agreement.

Marie J said she communicated with Rayvanny  via WhatsApp, and that he had agreed to help her raise her career profile by working with her.

She also claimed Rayvanny would often ask her for money and she would always oblige, only for him to later disappear into thin air.

“Rayvanny from Tanzania breached the agreement terms we had of working on a collaboration even after all the production costs were made,” she told Pulse newspaper in an interview.

“He requested that if I give him an amount of money he would help me to shine up all the way up within a short period of time so we agreed and I was sending money to him anytime he requested.”

She added that the collaboration with the former Wasafi Records signee was initially supposed to be released in 2020.

However, she alleged, Rayvanny later blocked her on all platforms, only floating to her an excuse that “kuna mambo yametokea” with no other clarification whatsoever, leaving the project hanging in the balance.

Queen Marie J is however still optimistic that the collaboration with Rayvanny would come to fruiting, saying maybe it was stifled by his former record label but that since he left and is now on his own, they could possibly resurrect it.

“He was supposed to help me personally but since he has left his previous label it would be easier to work with him, so I hope for the best. Probably the problem was his label then,” she said.
