Ghanaian UK Gospel Musician, Edward Amponsah releases “None Like You”
UK- based Ghanaian gospel musician, Edward Amponsah, is out once again with another soul-lifting worship tune titled ‘None Like You’.
The song which was recently released was produced by Tobass Adolphus.
In an Exclusive Interview with The Spectator he shared that the song birthed out through her wife in a time of worship.
“During the lockdown Covid-19 period in UK, the Lord dropped this song to my wife and I while in deep worship”, he said.
The song, “None Like You” is a soul-lifting and powerful worship piece which exalts the name of God and assures the world that our God is still in control in this pandemic.
It is laced with amazing lyricsinspired from the scriptures; Malachi 3:6, Numbers 23:19, Hebrews 13:8 and Jeremiah 10:6.
When asked about his opinion on how the recent COVID-19 has affected the gospel music fraternity, he stated, “Covid19 has unveiled other aspects of the gospel music which is very positive. We have seen virtual concerts taking place successfully in this season”.
“This season has taught gospel ministers that crowd should not be the motivator to worship and praise God, although ministering to a crowd is fantastic”.
The Worship leader of Global Harvest Ministries (UK) has four singles to his credit currently, which are ‘Thank you Lord, Jesus You Have been so good, God Alone and now, None Like You’.
The song is currently on YouTube and it is enjoying airplay on various musical online platforms.

Sparqlyn reminisces as he congratulates Shatta Wale for winning two awards at 43rd IRAWMA
Ghanaian musician and former member of musicial gorup, Dunsin, Ahmmed Kanneh Larweh, popularly known as Sparqlyn, has congratulated Ghanaian music heavyweight, Shatta Wale following his impressive double victory at the International Reggae and World Music Awards.
Shatta Wale recently made headlines after winning two major awards at the prestigious event held in Florida, USA, securing Best African Dancehall Entertainer and Concert of the Year for ShattaFest.
Reacting to the achievement, Sparqlyn could not hide his excitement after sighting news of the awards on Monday, May 18, 2025.
According to him, the one thing that caught his attention was the plaque presented to Shatta Wale. He noted that the design looked strikingly similar to the one Dunsin received when they won at the MUSA Awards over a decade ago.
The resemblance, especially the upper part of the plaque, instantly brought back memories of his former group’s historic moment on the African stage 13 years ago when the group represented Ghana proudly in South Africa.
It will be recalled that back in 2013, Dunsin achieved international recognition after winning Most Exciting Group in Africa and Most African Video at the MUSA Awards held in Pretoria, South Africa. The awards came on the back of their global hit project “Ɔyɛadeɛyie,” a song that helped elevate the group’s profile beyond Ghana.
At the time, Sparqlyn, then known by many as Kele within the group, was the one who represented Dunsin at the event to pick up the award.
Ghanaian dancehall artiste Charles Nii Armah Mensah, known as Shatta Wale, has won two awards at the 43rd International Reggae and World Music Awards (IRAWMA) held in Florida over the weekend.
He picked up the Best African Dancehall Entertainer award as well as Concert of the Year for ShattaFest.
In a statement, Shatta Wale’s management expressed appreciation to the organisers and supporters of the awards.
“Management would like to sincerely appreciate the organisers of the IRAWMA awards for the recognition and continuous support for African music on the global stage.
“We also extend our deepest gratitude to fans across the world, especially the Shatta Movement fraternity, for their unwavering support, votes, and dedication throughout the years,” the statement said.
The statement added that the latest wins reaffirm the artiste’s position as one of Africa’s leading musical exports and a prominent figure in global dancehall culture.
The awards bring Shatta Wale’s total haul at the IRAWMA to 11, highlighting his continued presence on the international reggae and dancehall scene.
At last year’s edition, he won three awards: Best African Dancehall Entertainer, Best Music Video for “Killa Ji Mi”, and Best Crossover Song for “Commando” featuring Bounty Killer. -GNA
