A Ghanaian talented bass guitarist, Felix De Solo now turned gospel artiste, is finally out with an official video release of his much awaited song ‘Be Magnified’.
The ‘Be Magnified’ track produced by Danny Sarp, carries an uplifting worship tune with simple verses and a hook, easy for all music lovers and worshippers to thank God at all times.
Felix De Solo whose real name is Felix Oppong Marfo is one the finest bass guitarists based in Kumasi, the Ashanti Regional capital.
He is a lead vocalist also of a well recognised gospel contemporary music choir in Ghana, Agape Incorporated.
In his new song ‘Be Magnified’, Felix De Solo expresses his profound gratitude to God as worthy of all adoration.
“Lord I exalt you Lord, Lord I Praise your name, Lord be magnified, Lord be magnified”, as a stanza of the chorus runs.
” Be Magnified” was first performed and recorded in 2018, but due to some constraints, Felix had to put it on hold till proper preparations were met before the official release, including the official video.
As to what inspired his writing of the song, this is what he shared with The Spectator, “I was inspired to make my Creator bigger and greater irrespective of the trials, troubles and the sorrows that come my way.
And I strongly believe that, after magnifying our Creator, we become better, stronger, and undefeated”.
The wait is now over and the song is finally released and enjoying massive airplay on various radio stations and other online musical platforms.
The song features George Agyekum, popularly known as Drum George Vicfirth, as the drummer behind the official recording, Sergio Manuel on the lead guitar, Osei Poku on the bass guitar and Efe Grace as the official back vocalist (BVs) of the song.
The official video production was by ‘Motion West Africa’ and ‘Built The King’.

Ghanaian musician Ezecheal Kwasi Asimeng Frimpong, popularly known as Ancienth has released a new Palmwine single titled ‘Asukese Abena’.
The song is a celebration of love, culture, and the timeless wisdom embedded in Ghana’s traditional way of life.
According to him, the project is meant to remind people that Palmwine music is not a relic of the past.
“Through this project, I want people to understand that Palmwine music is not a relic of the past, it is a living heritage that still speaks powerfully to the present,” he said.
Ancienth traces his journey in Palmwine music to the pioneering work of Kwame Asare, also known as Jacob Sam, and the Kumasi Trio. He credits them with laying the foundation for one of Ghana’s most important musical traditions, a path that later generations continue to walk.
“I entered this space because I believe every nation must protect its cultural voice,” Ancienth explained, adding that “Palmwine music carries our stories, values, humour, history, and identity. Preserving it is not only a musical responsibility but also a cultural one.”
The musician described the journey as rewarding but challenging, noting that traditional music often receives less attention and investment compared to mainstream genres.
To strengthen the space, he is calling for greater support from the media, cultural institutions, educational bodies, and the public.
“My appeal to Ghanaians is simple, support indigenous music, because when a people lose their cultural sound, they gradually lose part of their identity,” he added.
As a torchbearer of Palmwine Music, Ancienth says his mission is to honour the legacy of the pioneers while introducing Palmwine music to new generations and audiences across the world.
Asukese Abena is now available on all digital platforms, including YouTube
