According to the ‘Legelege’ hitmaker, she used to think she was ugly and thought black was dirty thus she resorted to bleaching.
“I used to think I was ugly. I thought being black is dirty, so I took to skin bleaching and suffered horrible side effects years later. But that is the result of self-hate.
I shared my story and got help, now I’ve learned to say: ‘You know what? I am a beautiful black woman. FanteKrobo, 100% Ghanaian“, Mzbel wrote.

Recall that, in an interview with Abeiku Santana on UTV’s Atuu show last year, Mzbel said;
“I have come to understand life and I am trying to connect to who I am, as a black person I don’t think I have to be apologizing for being black.
“I don’t care if people start saying I am black now, being white is not who I am and anytime I see someone with dark complexion I jealous the person. I move from Church to Church because I’m on a spiritual journey to quit bleaching”, she said.
