One of Ghana's most successful singers explains why she stepped out of the spotlight

MzVee, one of Ghana’s most successful female singers, tells DJ Edu why she stepped out of the spotlight, and discusses her return to making music.

MzVee appeared to have it all. She’s one of Ghana’s most successful female singers of her generation, with a string of hits, and has either won or been nominated for just about every African music award you can think of. 

But as she tells DJ Edu in this edition of TIA, she is basically a quiet person who found celebrity totally overwhelming. She took a long break from music, but has now found her way back, and is busy promoting her new album, inVeencible.
