Afrogospel vanguard, Joseph Matthew, has asserted that his innovative approach to Gospel music is revolutionizing the genre and inspiring a new wave of creativity in ways of worship.

His father, a seasoned choir director, and mother, a skilled chorister, instilled in him a deep love for music and worship. As he explored various other genres, JM discovered his true calling in Gospel music, merging his diverse influences to create his distinctive way of the ‘Afrogospel’ sound.
Hinting on the immenent release of his debut album, “Solid Rock,” Joseph is set to further cement his position as a pioneer in the Afrogospel movement. Featuring his released singles, including “Fear No Evil,” this highly anticipated project promises to be a masterpiece.
