With “Money Talks” De Wayne has now finally linked the financial and the music world and critically questioned the way people deal with the “green god” in his lyrics.
Zed, who has already been live on stage with De Wayne, has musically presented his artistic examination of current trends and discourses in times of the pandemic and finamce with “Money Talks”.
“Money Talks” clearly shows the imbalance between wealth and poverty that still exists. Billions are poured into the military, gambling and tax gifts for the rich. A society in which money rules and which has only one God – and he is “green”.

In mid-2020 he collaborated with producer and songwriter Zed on the song “Money Talks”. With this song, both artists wanted to shine a critical light on and question political developments, like the widening gap between the rich and the poor and the increasing religious worship of America’s green goddess „the Dollar“ in times of the pandemic, with all its consequences.
