Meanwhile, Shiela has in the past said she does not need an endorsement from her father Nana Acheampong, and her sister to make gains 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.
Jackline Acheampong, known professionally as Gyakie, aka Song Bird is a Ghanaian R&B and afro-fusion singer.
In 2019, Gyakie released her first single titled “Love is Pretty”, which paved the way for another single, “Never Like This”
