Ghanaian singer and songwriter, Rebecca Akosua Acheampong known in showbiz as Becca has refuted claims that she has ended singing or performing as an artiste.

It can be recalled that back in 2020 Becca announced via her Instagram page her decision to quit as a recording artiste by the end of 2020.

The decision was to allow her pay attention to her family as she had become a mother at that time. She also wanted to explore other field like real estate investment.

Speaking with Nana Ama McBrown on Onua Showtime, Becca explained that the statement was only to the effect that she took a hiatus from actively recording music and not quitting as a musician.

She stressed that her decision did not imply that she could not perform on stage during events or had quit singing completely.

“At a point in my life I decided to take a break so I when issued the statement people misunderstood it. I only said I did not want to be actively recording music. It did not mean that as an artiste I cannot perform on stage or I have stopped singing totally, it was only to the effect that I will not be engaging in studio recording.

“Also, I wanted to explore other areas after almost 14 years of music. But as an artiste honestly you can never say that you won’t sing anymore,” she noted on Sunday, February 11.

When questioned by host if there is any possibility she could return to active studio recordings, she replied “honestly, I do not know. The valentine love night show will tell.”

Becca who is now married and into real estate investment in addition to other businesses will grace the stage with colleague artiste Kwabena Kwabena on Wednesday, February 14 for the Vitamilk Love Night.

Meanwhile, Kwabena Kwabena said it took him two years to convince Becca for his yearly Valentine night performance.

“I wanted her to understand that she’s been missed by her fans. I have been to so many stages that after singing and about to leave stage, then the fans begin to sing ‘U lied to me’ then I sing my part and make the fans sing her part. It gave me the impression that she’s been missed,” Kwabena Kwabena said.
