Esther Smith further revealed that she does not write her songs.

According to her, she receives her songs through divine manifestations.

"I don’t go to the studio with a paper and pen; in fact, I have never done that before. All my 10 albums came through manifestations I received.

"Immediately I receive a song, the first thing I do is call Morris. I don’t even know where I got the gift from. Even when I go to the studio and the engineer delays, I don’t feel comfortable," she added.
