Every week, we highlight some of the songs that the Team here at AfroGospel Music has enjoyed recently.
This week’s playlist takes us across Nigeria and Zambia before ending with a throwback that still gets us smiling every time we hear it.
If you’re looking for a few songs to add to your weekend playlist, here are our recommendations.
Jeje – Limoblaze
Limoblaze has a way of creating songs that make you feel relaxed while still carrying a meaningful message, and Jeje is a great example of that.
The song reminds us that life with God does not have to be lived in anxiety or fear. There is a confidence that comes from trusting Him, because He loves us Jeje.
Final Say – Ada Ehi
Ada Ehi reminds listeners that no matter what circumstances may say, God always has the final word.
It is a song filled with hope and confidence, making it one that many believers return to during difficult seasons.
Mfumu – Tula Music
This week, our African recommendation comes from Zambia.
One of the things we enjoy most about exploring African gospel music is discovering how believers across the continent express the same faith through different languages, rhythms, and musical traditions.
If you’ve never listened to Zambian gospel music before, this is a wonderful place to begin.
Korede – Mike Abdul
Every week deserves a throwback, and this time we’re going back to one of Mike Abdul’s classics.
This song was released over 10 years ago, but we think it’s time to listen again.
Korede became a favourite for many gospel music lovers because of its joyful sound and memorable chorus.
Listening to it today brings back memories of an exciting season in Nigerian gospel music. It is still just as enjoyable now as it was when it was first released.
One of the things we love most about putting together this weekly series is discovering new music through you.
Every week, someone recommends a song we had never heard before, or reminds us of a classic we had almost forgotten. Those recommendations have helped shape these playlists, and we hope they have introduced you to music that has encouraged your faith as well.
As always, we’d love to hear from you.
Leave your recommendations in the comments. We read every one of them, and your favourite song might just be featured in next week’s edition of What We’re Listening To This Week.
