In 2016, Weird MC opened up about her spiritual journey, revealing how she gave her life to Christ after going through a difficult period marked by personal loss and emotional struggles.
According to the rapper, the death of her close friend, Nomoreloss, and the encouragement of fellow artiste Ayeesha played significant roles in her decision to embrace Christianity.
Reflecting on the experience, Weird MC said she had been hesitant to make the commitment because she wanted to be fully dedicated once she took the step. However, during a visit to a church with Ayeesha, she felt it was finally time to surrender her life to God.
Since then, she says her faith journey has been transformative and one she does not regret embarking on.
