Ghana’s music scene continues to captivate audiences with fresh and inspiring releases. Two notable artists, Joseph Atarah and Rama Antwi, have recently unveiled new songs that are making waves in the industry.
Joseph Atarah Unveils ‘Increase’
Joseph Atarah, known as Ghana’s singing Prophet, has released a video for his new song titled‘Increase’. The video was directed and shot by renowned director Sky Web. It showcases captivating dance moves set against the vibrant backdrop of Accra, highlighting the city’s beauty and energy.
Atarah co-wrote the song with Nana Boateng. During an interview on Hitz FM’s Daybreak Hitz, he shared the message behind the track. He described ‘Increase’ as a motivational song encouraging people not to give up in their current situations. According to him, with determination and a relentless desire to succeed, God will make everything beautiful.
“As you trust in God’s plan, remember that ‘INCREASE’ is on the way. Just as seeds grow into harvest, your faith is growing into abundance. God’s got you, and His increase is surrounding you,” he added.
Prophet Atarah left the military band in 2006 after a spiritual encounter to begin his prophetic ministry. He started his music journey about four years ago, combining his faith with his passion for music.
Rama Antwi’s ‘Wakae Me’ Offers Thanksgiving
Fast-rising Ghanaian gospel musician Rama Antwi is set to take over the world with her much-anticipated single‘Wakae Me’. The song carries a thanksgiving message, expressing gratitude to God for life-changing miracles.
Speaking to The Spectator Agoro, Rama Antwi shared that the song is a testimony of her journey in the music industry, from her basic school days to TV3 Mentor and her current situation. She emphasized that no matter what people are going through, the Lord will remember them, adding that all they need is to pray and not relent.
She mentioned that there are times in one’s life when challenges make people forget that God is in charge. Rama said: “The situation makes it difficult for you to even believe God could change the situation for you. This song is to let you know that whatever is happening, a day will come for you to smile.”
“When the time comes, your miracle will happen to your amazement; those who used to mock you will be the same people to praise you,” Rama Antwi added.
According to her, she has seen that testimony in her life, which is why she is offering thanksgiving through the song. Rama Antwi appealed to everyone, including industry players, to support the song to reach the intended audience.
