The gospel artist Sophia (stage name Sophy-Yah) is a dynamic and anointed singer, who encourages and blesses the heart of people with her God given voice. The Nigerian-born artist now based in the United Kingdom (UK) was born-again at age 13 and immediately became passionate about the things of God. For eight years, she suffered a great deal of persecution but God delivered her from them all.
Sophy-Yah started using her talent
I grew up surrounded by music, back in the day my father had a record store, so there was always music playing at home, this made me fall in love with music and singing. My music ministry started when I got born again at age 13, I knew I wanted to use my voice to praise and glorify my maker. I draw inspiration from a lot of things , ranging from events happening around me, to words I hear, inscriptions etc, but my greatest inspiration is the Holy Spirit.
The greatest challenge has been finance, I self finance my music ministry but by God’s grace and providence I am looking forward to a sponsorship offer or a record label that will deal with all that . Another challenge I have is when some people suggest that I will do better as a secular artist, and are willing to sponsor me only if I agree to divert to secular music. I find it very ridiculous as I am a gospel artist.

In this interview with TheNewsGuru, the anointed singer recounts her music journey, among other issues: I decided to become a gospel artiste because it is one of the things the Lord has called me to do as his child having given my life to him at the young age of 13. I was severely persecuted for my faith, but the lord sustained and kept me .It was during the course of my persecution that he gave me songs. I have recorded a few of them and am yet to record the rest.
Gospel artistes and the media
The media doesn’t support gospel artistes like they should. I am looking forward to the day gospel artistes will have much publicity like the secular artistes.
