Ghanaian afro-fusion singer Gyakie has said she wished she had approached some interview questions differently when she first got into the music industry.
Reflecting on some of her regrets in the industry, she mentioned some answers she gave during the early stages of her career were childish.
“There were certain things I said at some interviews when I was 19-20 years when I came into the industry that I wished I answered the questions in a different way.
If I was at a certain age and I did something, in as much as i didn't like the way I did it, at that age, that was how my brain was working and I allowed myself be who I was at that time,” she said in an interview with Doreen Avio on Daybreak Hitz.
She further mentioned hate speech as a similar drawback she faced.
"After ‘Forever’ dropped, I literally opened up, and really allowed the negative comments get to me. I used to read every single comment, following up on the person's page to know why his comments.
During that forever period, I was always struggling in the studio, looking for what song I'm going to drop that's going to be the same of that,” she added.
The songstress further shared how she embraced self motivation to sail through those setbacks
"Now, I will actually make a post and I don't go through the comment or open up myself for negative comments to get to me.
“I had to speak to myself to just make yhe music, if the song is meant to blow up, its going to but so far as it's good music, just drop it,” she said.
