The genre, which from the onset was described by many as ungodly due to few tweaks in lyrics and rhythm, has without exaggeration, become one of the most accepted and listened to genres not only in Ghana but globally.
Interestingly, I am confident that Ghana and its entirety is yet to experience another storm with regard to pure talent and creativity in the urban gospel fraternity as I introduce Samuel Adjei Sowah, an award-winning dancer and singer who domiciles in Switzerland.

I heeded her advice and, while on that task, I promised God if he could help deliver me from this shame, I will sing and shout to his glory. Thankfully, God fulfilled his part of the bargain and it is time to fulfill mine,” he said.
