New York, USA
Dynamic and Talented US based gospel music artiste; Adwoa Frimpong recently
launched her debut CD in the Bronx, NY entited; "Ye dan wo" which is worth
having a copy. Gospel music fans would like to know more about her so she
tells her story. Read on??.;
My name is Adwoa Frempong and I?m a budding star who has been in the
background for a long time. I have for over the years been singing with the
Voices of Inspiration, the choir of Resurrection Power & Living Bread
Ministries in the Bronx, New York.
My debut album entitled ?Ye Dan Wo? was launched on August 29, 2009. The
goal of this album is to remind Christians all over the world to depend and
rely solely on Christ. In spite of the hardships that we go through, it will
only take the intervention of Christ to see us through and therefore,
whatever your problem is, I believe when you listen to this album, you will
definitely have a sense of relief.
I was born in Ghana, West Africa to wonderful parents and grew up in a large
family of which singing happened to be a God given gift. My grandmother was
so talented that after every preaching section, she came up with a song and
this gift trickled down to my mother. She was part of the Presbyterian
Church Choir. As a child, I was so interested in music that my father
usually played gospel music for me from morning till sun down. I followed my
mother to choir rehearsals and by the time we returned, I could literally
sing all the songs that was taught at the rehearsals. My grandmother used to
sing to me and tell me the stories behind some of the songs and this was
embedded in my heart and mind as I grew up. It is not surprising to see me
come out in God?s own appointed time with such a beautiful and uplifting
album because the bible says, ?train up a child in the way he/she should go
and when he/she is grown, he/she will never depart from it.?
I completed Secondary School in Ghana and after attending Effia Nkwanta
Nursing School for a year, I left for the United States of America in 1995.
I gained employment with Sheraton Hotels of New York where I?ve been working
for the past 10 years. God has blessed me with two wonderful children
Franklin Eson-Benjamin Jnr. and Anita Eson-Benjamin.
I have been through the ups and downs of life and by the mercies of God I am
still here. Most people know me at work as the happy lady because I?m always
singing and in church also I?m known to be a dancer, but one thing people do
not know is that, I dance and sing my way out of my problems. God used these
songs to minister to me and when the right time came I recorded them.
