"I wanted to be an entrepreneur," Gyakie says, detailing her unforeseen route to success in the music industry.

Gyakie, the Afrobeat singer and songwriter from Ghana, Jackline Acheampong, originally aspired to be an entrepreneur rather than a musician.

Consequently, she started her music career at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), where she studied International Business.

The "Forever" hitmaker recalled how her career started on The Day Show with Berla Mundi, where she met her producer, Sosa, through a friend on the KNUST campus.

Thus, it all began for me before my admission to the institution. Before attending KNUST, I wanted to start a business and make money. I studied international business there until I ran into my producer, Sosa, on campus through a friend, Gyakie, who revealed

Gyakie continues, saying that soon after they first met, Sosa sent her a track that eventually became her debut song on streaming services. As soon as she listened to the beat, she realized she could write songs.

She wrote a song called "Never Like This," which was initially released on music streaming services.

Since then, the rapidly emerging artist has put out several singles, such as "Something" and his most recent single, "Rent Free," which is already trending on social media.
