Gospel musician Diana Hamilton has explained why she doesn't consider herself a musician by profession despite her widespread success.

According to her, she always goes back to nursing and doesn't solely define her career by music.

“I struggle to say I am doing music professionally because I am not. That is why I would always go back to nursing. I never said this is the right time.

Anywhere I saw the microphone, and I was given a chance, I picked it,” she emphasized.

She discovered her love for music at a very early age,highlighting how she'd turn every text, or message into a song when given the least opportunity.

She recounted how “whenever they gave me a long list to recite something, I would turn it into a song”.

“I remember in church, at 13, I took the microphone to sing because it was my birthday and my teacher had taught me a song, and I sang it. But even prior to that, she recounted.

Nursing she insists is a calling she says.

Following the success of the album, her subsequent songs, including “Ensi Wo Yie”, “Blessings”, and “Yehowah”, cemented her place as one of the most influential gospel artists in Africa and beyond.

In recent years she has had collaborations with other international acts such as Nigeria's Mercy Chinwo
