In a recent interview, rising Ghanaian musician Shattana has shared a controversial encounter with popular media personality Delay, revealing advice she received from Delay that she claims left her disheartened.
Delay, whose real name is Deloris Frimpong Manso, is currently trending on social media, especially after her recent interactions with various public figures and the sad passing of politician Akua Donkor. This surge in attention has prompted several individuals to recount their personal experiences with the outspoken media personality, and Shattana’s story has drawn particular interest.
During an interview monitored by Gh Page, Shattana, who is building a name for herself in Ghana’s music scene, spoke about her previous interaction with Delay. She recounted being introduced to the media figure with high hopes of guidance and support as she sought to establish her career. However, according to Shattana, the advice Delay offered did not align with her expectations.
Shattana alleged that Delay, while acknowledging her beauty, encouraged her to leverage her physical appearance to gain visibility and success in the music industry. According to Shattana, Delay insinuated that using her looks might be necessary if she wanted to gain recognition as a female musician in Ghana.
The young artist admitted that this advice from Delay left her feeling disillusioned. She expected mentorship that would empower her talent and creativity rather than suggesting a focus on her physical appearance. Shattana’s revelations have since sparked discussions online, with many expressing mixed reactions over Delay’s alleged advice and the impact such guidance could have on emerging female artists.
As the story circulates, Shattana’s disclosure has become part of a broader conversation about the struggles female artists often face in the industry. The reactions also add to the ongoing public discourse surrounding Delay’s influence and the nature of her interactions with both up-and-coming and established figures.
Delay has yet to respond to Shattana's claims, and it remains unclear how she views her role in shaping the careers of young talents in Ghana’s entertainment scene.
