Musician Fantana says she took a break to rediscover herself
Fantana has clarified that her recent silence in the music scene doesn’t mean she’s bowed out completely; she’s simply pressing pause to realign with her purpose.
In an interview on Starr FM, the Ghanaian artiste revealed that the break is a deliberate decision to create music that reflects her growth and personal truth.
“I haven’t quit music fully. I just needed time to find myself. I don’t want to sing just anything—I want my music to be meaningful and relatable,” she explained.
Fantana emphasized that she no longer wants to chase trends or produce songs that don’t resonate with her identity. Instead, she’s seeking to make an authentic connection with her audience through intentional storytelling.
She also lauded fellow Ghanaian musician Black Sherif for setting a powerful example in the art of musical storytelling, which she believes signals a positive shift in the local industry.
On the subject of awards, Fantana challenged the industry’s obsession with accolades, stating that an artiste’s legacy shouldn’t hinge on trophies.
“Awards don’t define your career. Many music legends have none. What really matters is having a loyal fan base that connects with your music and supports your journey,” she asserted.
Despite her current hiatus, Fantana encouraged fans to continue streaming her songs and supporting her work. Though she stopped short of confirming a full comeback, she teased new material and an exciting collaboration on the horizon.
“I’m bringing someone iconic, so y’all should stay tuned,” she hinted—keeping listeners eager for what’s next.
