NEW MUSIC: YWHW (YAHWEH) by SNATCHA of ROOFTOPMC'S


 After a few years hiatus from the music scene Rooftopmcs’ Snatcha is back with his side project SNATCHA AND THE UNSEEN FORCES

On this remake of Chris Delvan’s “You are glorious” Snatcha teams up with the vocal prowess of Deji of Fourkornerz and amazing production by Mr Damention to create this experimental mix of HipHop/ dance/worship. 

“ I had to get really personal on this track, cos I have been through hell and high water lately and it was the ability to hear bad news and burst out in dancing and thanking God through it all that saw me through.” Says Snatcha.

Although the group Rooftopmcs are still very much together, they have both stepped out to do individual projects (to be released on their Rooftopclan music imprint) before coming back to drop another rooftopmcs album. 

 Without further ado, Snatcha and the unseen forces presents YWHW (YAHWEH)






MUSIC: ONYEOMA BY T-KROSS [Download]


T-Kross has been featured in selected songs with renowned Nigerian artistes such as 2face and Iyanya. One of such songs is ‘My Love is True’ with the legendary 2face Idibia.

T-Kross’s beliefs keep the Gospel genre close to his heart and his new single, Onyeoma communicates his Love and gratefulness to God. “I do know I was inspired to write this song, it came from the inside of me and defines my purpose as a musician. I am not where I am today because I worked more than the next person but because God favours me” T-Kross said of the song which he wrote and produced himself (KayKbeatz). Nevertheless, Onyeoma has this pop, upbeat and rhythmical tempo about it that does not make it an “in your face” gospel song. With features that make for good music, it will appeal to a wide range of musical tastes.

Be blessed, Download and Enjoy.



MUSIC: I DECLARE [Worship Medley] by EFE NATHAN



From the stable of one of Africa’s leading female gospel singers comes this new song that accompanies the mind all day. EFE Nathan has done it again with a medley version of one of her beloved singles ‘I Declare’.

This medley is a remix of a 2011 version of ‘I Declare’ from her second album ‘A New Level’. The album featured songs such as ‘Still within the Flow’ and ‘Lift Your Hands’, which features Mike Abdul of the Midnight Crew. Those of us who heard the previous version were introduced to the definition of soul gospel. EFE, who describes her music as CONTAF (Contemporary African), sure has a way of weaving soulful tunes into danceable, sing-along hits.

‘The lyrics of  ‘I Declare’ kept going through my mind and when it was time to go back into the studio, I knew I just had to do that song again to declare God’s awesomeness, mighty Hand and His power over lives especially my own, these past few months and over the years. I don’t praise God because I am emotional; the reason I praise God the way I do is because I almost died in a situation, but God snatched me out! I owe Him praise,” EFE said.

‘I Declare Medley’, produced by Bode Afolabi, premieres across Africa and beyond, today!
