“I was first a graphic designer before becoming a gospel musician” – Esther Smith publicly reveals for the first time

Yesterday,
scores
of
fans
thronged
the
Kotoka
International
Airport
to
welcome
Esther
Smith,
who
arrived
in
Ghana
after
over
a
decade
abroad

Her
arrival
comes
ahead
of
her
concert
in
Ghana,
which
will
be
held
in
Kumasi
and
Accra
on
August
25
and
30,
respectively.

In
a
recent
interview
ahead
of
the
show,
the
singer
talked
about
her
alternative
career
as
a
graphic
designer.

Talking
to
Abeiku
Santana
on
Okay
FM,
Esther
Smith
shared
her
experience
using
several
graphic
designing
tools,
including
Corel
Draw.

The
Som
No
Yie
hitmaker
also
said
she
used
to
work
with
colleague
Edward
Akwasi
Boateng’s
wife,
who
had
impeccable
typing
skills.

Despite
her
knack
for
graphic
design,
the
singer
stuck
to
her
calling
as
a
gospel
minister.

She
released
her
debut
album,
Gye
No
Di,
in
2000,
which
earned
three
Ghana
Music
Awards,
including
Gospel
Album
of
the
Year.
