Singer and television presenter, Michy has praised Gyakie , a colleague in the profession, for using her abilities rather than her physical appearance to gain international fame.
Female musicians have frequently felt pressure in the music industry to exploit their bodies as a means of success and attention.
Michy, however, thinks that Gyakie has changed the game as an artist by demonstrating that making excellent music doesn’t need you to reveal yourself sexually.
Michy, a guest on TV3’s Ladies Circle, lauded Gyakie for her musical style and said that she is providing a good example for upcoming female musicians.

Michy aspires for other female musicians, including herself, to follow Gyakie’s lead and put more emphasis on their talent and craft than on how attractive they are physically.
“I don’t think she’s ever looked sexual, she’s always in a good outfit and that’s what I am also trying do personally and musically when I come back, I don’t want to go back to wearing transparent clothing to trend”
Michy, a well-known musician has come under fire for her attire selections and what some have deemed to be sexualization.
She claims to be developing a sound that is of high quality and does not require sexiness to be appealing to listeners.
“The music should be quality and you can always incorporate sexy in a way that is classy. Let’s not use the word decent but sexy and classy. “
