For her session, Gyakie performed three songs off her \u201cMy Diary\u201d EP. She sang a Reggae version of her soulful song, \u201cFar Away\u201d and on \u201cFor My Baby\u201d, she reimagined a sweet clean version of the Highlife song before switching \u201cWaka Waka\u201d into an exciting Rock cover.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
As a nod to one of her influences: Ghanaian Reggae\/Dancehall artist, Samini formerly known as Batman Samini, Gyakie performed a smooth cover of his hit song, \u201cWhere My Baby Dey\u201d, a known and adored song by Ghanaians.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
On why she selected these songs, the Flip The signed artist is quoted by Apple saying\u00a0\u201cThese songs are special to me because of how soulful they are.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Reflecting on the impact the COVID-19 outbreak\u2019s lockdown had on her career, she added that:\u00a0\u201cLockdown taught me to work twice as much as usual. I also tapped into different things to broaden my creativity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n I learnt to believe in my sound more and work expeditiously. I also got to learn new things that I have applied in my writing, recording and my craft as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Since the Lockdown, Gyakie\u2019s scored several spots on global charts with her music. She\u2019s grown to become a nominated and award-winning artist projected to become one of Ghana\u2019s biggest artists, globally.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The last two years have been a rollercoaster for Gyakie. Her smash hit, \u201cForever,\u201d topped charts in Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya. It became the most Shazamed song at one point, and it went to number one on Billboard\u2019s Top Triller Global. In March 2021, she inked a deal with Sony and RCA, UK. Just last month, she featured in the Grammy Herbal Tea session.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n With all these successes and achievements, the quality of her music never dropped but grew bigger and better.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/picture><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
