Teresia Ndoti Wambui, better known as Kush Tracey, has revealed she silently battled depression before joining the gospel industry. The 'huwezi nidandia' singer's switch to gospel came as a shock to many.

Kush added that she regrets partying too much while she was in the secular industry.

I've done and said things that I am not proud of. i regret being the party animal that I was.

She also noted that many of her fans expect her to get rid of her tattoos but she won't.

I'm not removing MY TATTOOS, GOD LOVED AND ACCEPTED ME THE WAY I AM

She concluded by saying:

i knew i had to change because God has been great to me. I want to use my voice not to drive them away from God, but rather bring them closer to God.

Kush, who now identifies as a gospel artist has released her first gospel songs termed 'God is on control.'
