Speaking to The Spectator, Shatty Charlotte said that she testified to God’s power after a patient was restored to life by prayer under her supervision as a nurse in UK.
‘’ In my first week practising as a nurse, a young lady nearly died in my bay, she collapsed and was unresponsive so I had to press the emergency buzzer, I began to pray and it was as if someone had called her from afar, she just sat up and I was completely amazed by the work of God, this inspired me to write ‘’Aseda Afore3’’ – she said
Shatty Charlotte is optimistic that this single will be a blessing to lives and the world at large especially this yuletide and it’s available on all digital music platforms.
Gospel singer, songwriter and currently a nurse in the United Kingdom, Shatty Charlotte has been singing since childhood, a gift her father noticed when she was three years.

While there she had the opportunity to sing in various places including the State House, Goethe Institut – Accra and on GBC TV.
Shatty has a great passion for the things of the Kingdom of God. Her album ‘’Power in Praise’’ tells the story of her life and one reason you should never give up in life.
She is married with three children who all live in the United Kingdom.
