Her partner in the house was her boyfriend Keitta Ossei.
Born in August, 1986 and growing up in Accra with her only sibling support coming from her brother, the talented entertainer has always been a firm believer in taking it easy and breezing through hardships with panache, hence her stage name Eazzy.
She has always had a penchant for hard work as evidenced by her fastidiousness throughout her school years right from St Anthony's Junior High School, Mfantiman Senior High School and the Institute of Professional Studies in Ghana to the Chartered Institute of Marketing UK.
After an in-and-out affiliation with the record label Lynx she finally put pen to paper in 2009 as the newest artiste of Lynx Entertainment.
Her ability to rap, sing and dance has helped her to the forefront of the Ghanaian showbiz industry. She has also done well in her collaborations with artistes such as Doneo, Sonni Balli, Jaydu Blay Ambulley, Richie, Kwaku T of Big Brother Fame, Kevin Beats, Tinny, E.L, Asem, Efya & Zigi and many more.
Her first single, Bo Wonsem Ma Me, was an instant club and radio hit but her song Wengeze caused waves at all entertainment centres across the country and was one of the most requested songs on radio.
She has excelled at events such as the Ghana Music Awards, Vodafone 020live, Miss Ghana, 4sytetv music video awards, Joyfm nite with the stars, as well as various concerts in Accra, Kumasi, Koforidua, Suyani, Tamale and Takoradi.
After launching her debut album titled Twinkle on 28 August 2010, Eazzy had over 15 nominations including five majors in the 2011 Ghana Music Awards. She won best storyline video of 2011 for her song One Gal, which featured Richie.
