Ghanaian singer Wendy Shay has admitted that when she first arrived in Ghana, she experienced spiritual assaults.
Wendy Shay discussed her struggles and the enduring impact of music during a segment on “The Day Show” with Bella Mundi.
Since she was born and raised in Germany, Wendy initially had little contact with religion. She did, however, experience a number of spiritual attacks after moving to Ghana, which she recognized as a widespread occurrence. Wendy also realized that music has a spiritual quality to it.
“Growing up in Germany, you don’t really see spirituality like that but when I came to Ghana, obviously, I faced a lot of spiritual battles,”she disclosed.
Wendy acknowledged that there must be something outside of her that draws people to her performances. She was curious as to the causes of her success and the strong connection she had with her audience. She thinks that the spiritual energy in her music connects with listeners and contributes to her success as an artist.
She further added that “It’s normal everywhere. Music itself is a spirit. What is so special about me that people will like to come and watch me perform. There should be something that is beyond me that is actually making that happen.”
Wendy discussed how these encounters have significantly influenced her artistic and personal development. Despite having always known she wanted to pursue music, the difficulties she encountered helped her find her true calling and lead a life that is more driven by purpose.
She now strives to live intentionally and approaches her career with mindfulness, embracing her identity as a purpose-driven artist.
Meanwhile, former France Ambassador to Ghana, Anne Sophie Avé, has made passionate appeal to government should consider granting Sarkodie, Stonebwoy, Shatta Wale and other musicians a diplomatic passport.
According to Sophie Avé, Sarkodie, Stonebwoy, Black Sherif, Shatta Wale, R2Bees, and King Promise deserve a diplomatic passport because they keeping putting Ghana on the globe with their creative arts better than the best Ambassadors could in a lifetime.
