Ghanaian singer Jackline Acheampong stops letting online comments hurt her feelings. The artist known as Gyakie learned to protect her creative energy from social media negativity. She once spent hours reading every single response to her posts. Critics made her search through their pages to understand their harsh words. Experience taught her to avoid opening herself up for emotional damage.

Gyakie told Hitz FM listeners about her struggles after Forever became popular. Negative feedback used to consume her thoughts and affect her music-making. The R&B performer would investigate each person who wrote mean things about her work. She wanted to figure out what gave them the right to judge her talent. Those days ended when she realized the pattern was destroying her peace.

The award winner reflects on interviews she gave at ages 19 and 20. Some of her answers from those early career moments make her cringe today. She wishes she could change certain responses because internet content lasts forever. Her younger self lacked the wisdom that comes with time and success. Gyakie accepts that her brain worked differently back during those formative years.

The artist recently released her new track, Sankofa, to fans worldwide. Her music continues to reach audiences across Ghana and beyond its borders.
