Media Excel Production’s new signee and Australian-based church of Pentecost member, who is also a songwriter, composer, and performer Estelle Safowaa is set to release her first single in 2023 dubbed, “He Reigns”.
“He Reigns” is set to be out on April 30, 2023. The song featured a spirit-filled award-winning gospel singer Joe Mettle.
According to Estelle Safowaa, the song is to praise God for all His wonderful works and to make all nations know of His loving and caring nature. 
“My song “He Reigns” is to exalt God and appreciate his wonderful works. He is the ruler of all. King of Kings and Father of all Nations he’s never lost his Kingdom to anyone since creation commenced. So he reigns forever.
“The LORD reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Praise the LORD – Psalm: 146:10”, She explained the song with reference to the scripture.
according to her, “Joe Mettle accepted to be on the song because he understood the assignment God has placed on our hands as gospel musicians to reach out to thousands of lost souls out there to understand the saving knowledge of JESUS CHRIST.”
she added that Joe Mettle was “Overwhelmed with the content. I am very grateful to him for his support throughout the recording and even in the video production, He is a kind person.”
Legendary Ghanaian gospel musician and founder of the Asomafo gospel group, Yaw Sarpong, is reporteddead.
The 66 year old gospel artiste is said to have died at the Emena Hospital in Kumasi on January 20, where he was receiving medical treatment.
For sometime now, Yaw Sarpong had been dealing with prolonged health challenges, forcing him to reduce his public appearances and step away periodically from performances.
Yaw Sarpong is widely credited as a pioneer of contemporary Akan gospel music.
Through Yaw Sarpong and Asomafo, he introduced a distinctive sound marked by rich harmonies, disciplined arrangements and lyrics firmly grounded in Christian teachings.
His leadership and musical direction helped shape the identity of gospel music in Ghana for decades.
Some popular tunes by the group includes ‘Wo Haw Ne Sen’, ‘Tie Obiaa’, ‘Aduro Yesu’ and ‘Awurade Kasa’, tracks that continue to feature prominently in churches and Christian gatherings across the country.
Yaw Sarpong’s death comes barely some weeks after the passing of Maame Tiwa, a key pillar of the Yaw Sarpong’s Asomafo music group.
