Gospel music’s advocate and artiste, Joseph Matthew has expressed his elation at the fast rising sub genre of the Gospel Music in Africa. He revealed that he was shown in a vision, the reach of the genre. So he did not stop at anything but started it although the populace and lovers of Gospel music thought of it as blasphemy.

Joseph Matthew further espounded that as a propounder of the culture, there was a particular pattern he started with, which has grown several sound branches at the moment. He explained that his fusion was of the indigenous Afrobeat sound from Fella Kuti and his fellow cohorts together with the good news message from the Bible.

The combination brought heavy backlashes from all angles of the Christian stratosphere at him. Many were those who even asserted that he was an antichrist, but now the genre is everywhere, not only in Ghana but Africa as well.

Since it’s inception by Joseph Matthew, the genre has grown to incorporate sounds like, Amapiano, the novel ‘Afrobeats’, Hiphop, RnB, etc together with the basic element, “The Gospel”.

Joseph Matthew is somehow melancholic that whenever there is a conversation on the Afro-gospel Genre, he is not duly acknowledged as the father of it, although there are proves without doubt that he started it in Africa. He also evinced that he had more in store for his fans and lovers of Afro-gospel.

Checkout his latest song, “Blessed” from below and judge for yourself.

Ghanaian Reggae Dancehall artist, Tillie Gya, has come to the defense of Shatta Wale following his performance at Vybz Kartel’s Freedom concert. While some fans, particularly those of Stonebwoy, have been mocking Shatta Wale’s performance, Tillie Gya believes this is uncalled for. According to him, Shatta Wale’s inclusion in the concert is a big win for Ghana and Africa, and should be celebrated.

Tillie Gya took to social media to express his disappointment at the behavior of some Stonebwoy fans. He believes that fan bases in Ghana should know when to celebrate and when to compete. Instead of mocking Shatta Wale, fans should be proud of his achievement and the fact that he is putting Ghana on the map.

The debate highlights the intense rivalry between Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy, two of Ghana’s biggest Reggae Dancehall artists. However, Tillie Gya’s comments serve as a reminder that there is room for all artists to shine and make Ghana proud. By celebrating each other’s successes, Ghanaian artists can work together to take the music industry to the next level.

Tillie Gya’s defense of Shatta Wale has sparked a conversation about the need for unity and support among Ghanaian artists and their fans. As the music industry continues to grow, it is essential for fans to recognize and celebrate the achievements of all artists, regardless of their affiliations or rivalries.

The champion music producer, Joe Kole, has proven to be a timeless producer; recently being behind 80% of hit songs in ghana and being a core influence in the rise of kumerican music vibe.
