Renowned gospel singer Piesie Esther recently revealed a surprising fact about her career—she never imagined achieving such success in music.

Piesie Esther, who began her musical journey at 16, grew up in a deeply religious household where she gained a profound understanding of spirituality. Attending numerous gospel concerts during her teenage years shaped her musical abilities and career aspirations. Over the years, her series of albums and singles have earned her acclaim both nationally and internationally.

In 2023, Piesie Esther clinched the Gospel Artiste of the Year award, narrowly missing out on the prestigious Artiste of the Year title, which went to Black Sherif. Happily married to Enoch Asiedu, she is also a proud mother of four children.

During an appearance on “Upside Down,” an entertainment and lifestyle show co-hosted by Frema Adunyame and Nana Tuffour on Citi TV, Piesie Esther astonishingly admitted that she never envisioned herself achieving such immense stardom in the gospel music industry.

The conversation took a hopeful turn as she mentioned a pivotal figure in her life, “I never dreamt of being such a great person… Because it was difficult to even get food to eat…There was this musician Mama Georgia… She saw the potential in me, even when I couldn’t see it myself. I was singing with Mama Georgia before she introduced me to Apae Live.”

According to her, It was pastor Apae Live who “helped me to release my first album in 2002”
