Ghanaian songbird Jackline Acheampong aka Gyakie has recounted the pressure she faced at the budding stage of her music career.
She told DJ Edu of BBC Africa in a recent interview that she was usually in tears when she started commercial music because her management was bent on achieving results.
According to Gyakie, she would cry often when more pressure was mounted on her to produce bigger hit songs after her success with Forever.
"If I am pressured or shouted at, I am going to grab a tissue and cry. So, I don't like to be pressured or shouted at. At the beginning of my career, I would cry at home almost every three days because the pressure was too much. Especially when ‘Forever’ blew up. The expectations were high for me to come out with another hit song," she said.
Gyakie's journey from navigating the pressures of fame to becoming one of Ghana’s most celebrated female artists is a testament to her resilience and determination. Her hit single, “Forever,” which has surpassed 150 million combined streams, remains a shining example of her undeniable talent and enduring impact on the music industry
