Musician, Gyakie born Jackline Acheampong has said she is the only artiste from her father.
Gyakie appears unimpressed by her sister’s aspirations to succeed in the music industry, a path she herself has excelled in since gaining fame.
During an interview with Accra-based TV3, Gyakie expressed her lack of enthusiasm when questioned about her sister, Shiela Acheampong, and her music career.
When asked if her sister is also an artist, Gyakie bluntly responded, “I’m the only artist in the family, so let’s move on.”
In contrast, Shiela has previously stated that she does not require endorsements from her father, Nana Acheampong, or her sister to achieve success in the music industry.
She is on record to have said in an interview with GhanaWeb TV that “It would be amazing to have that but then…let me think about this question well, I don’t want to commit a blunder. With the Abedi Peles’, Dede Ayew tried his best to make people know him for who he is…his dad groomed him but he rose to fame with his own works.
“I’d love it (endorsement) but I would want to build it myself. I already have the foundation so I want to work on the building. Let them support me and the endorsement can follow…I want something like that,” she said.
“I would be very very happy if my dad was like Sheila, this song, look at it. I would be like Owoahene wrote this song for me and I am singing it to you. That would be the introduction,” the singer told GhanaWeb.
